The Writings of Shabkar

Shabkar Tsogdruk Rangdrol (1781-1851) lived at a time in Tibetan history when many spiritual lineages were on the verge of extinction. Transcending sectarian differences, e exemplified religious tolerance, altruism and pure perception. In addition to his autobiography, Shabkar left numerous clear and inspiring teachings. The present catalogue offers a structured list and description of the 14 volume complete edition of the master’s Collected Writings prepared by Shechen Publications. Shabkar has often been compared with Milarepa not only for his way of life and his spiritual accomplishment, but also for his amazing ability to improvise songs. His rich and varied style ranks among the clearest an most beautiful in Tibetan literature.
