Now available as an audiobookIn this small book Lama Zopa Rinpoche emphasizes the importance of compassion and universal responsibility and how to make life meaningful, then gives a brief explanation of the nature of the enlightened mind and how we can attain it, and finally offers an extensive explanation of emptiness, the ultimate nature of reality.
All the things we do can become very powerful methods for quickly achieving enlightenment. As we purify ourselves and collect extensive merit, we bring ourselves closer to enlightenment every minute of every day. Through the Mahayana practice of offering the food we eat, our lives become most beneficial, not only for ourselves but for all sentient beings.

In this book, Rinpoche explains in the greatest possible detail just how precious our perfect human rebirth is and why we should not waste a moment of it.
