Interesting
After giving a short but very informative version of the lifestory of Siddharta, the historical Buddha, this high Tibetan lama explores the six paramitas or perfections (of good conduct). These are basically a guide on how to be a good boy or girl. Choegyam Trungpa mixes these ancient guidelines with present-day anecdotes to make them more palatable and up to date. That is what makes this book action-oriented. The part on meditation is full of practical advice, and answers to questions of students. Fun to read while you travel or before you go to sleep.
