520    "In this book, beloved teacher Lama Zopa Rinpoche guides 
       us through the most popular mantras in Tibetan Buddhism: 
       Shakyamuni Buddha, Chenrezig, Manjushri, Tara, Medicine 
       Buddha, Vajrasattva, and more. A mantra-literally "that 
       which protects the mind"-is a series of Sanskrit syllables
       that evoke the energy of a particular buddha or 
       bodhisattva. It works as a sacred sound that brings 
       blessings to ourself and others, and as a tool to 
       transform our mind into one that is more compassionate and
       wise. In clear and succinct teachings, Lama Zopa shows us 
       why we need different mantras and how each mantra works. 
       He also explains their importance and power, giving 
       specific instructions for practicing them. The exquisite, 
       full-color illustrations of the deities that accompany the
       text make this book a beautiful guide, one suitable for 
       both beginners and experienced practitioners"--|cProvided
