Concepts of Buddhism (CD)
Lama Govinda


$7.95 audio CD
978-0-8356-8116-2

This rare recording, given by Lama Govinda at the age of 79, reveals the discerning wisdom gained from a lifetime devoted to the practice and study of Tibetan Buddhism and other Eastern philosophical and religious systems. Much of this program involves Lama Govinda responding to spontaneous questions from the audience. Topics covered include dharma, reincarnation, transformation, Advaita Vedanta, and the differences between Zen and Tibetan Buddhism. 1977. 66 minutes.


Lama Anagarika Govinda was born in Germany in 1898. He was the founder of the Buddhist Order Arya Maitreya Mandala. In 1931 Govinda met his Tibetan guru, Tomo Geshe Rinpoche, by whom he was initiated into the Gelug-pa sect. He spent the next thirty years in northern India, while finding time to make several trips to Tibet during the early 1930s and again in 1948-49.
