"This book was a gift from my dear friend, Ryan, and I read every word. I really like the heart of the fearless warrior part. It has many beautiful elaborate descriptions of Buddhist ideology."
"An introduction to the secular Shambhala teachings. Interesting and especially practical for the non-Buddhist. I was especially intrigued by how much some Shambhala teachings have in common with Stoicism."
"Inspiration from the ancient Tibetan Kingdom of Shambhala as a means to strive for an enlightened society in modern times carries powerful messages. The Buddhist foundation is grounding while expanding to encompass all beings in a non-religious way of life mentality focused on fearlessness, egolessness, and soft-heartedness. These and related characteristics are the "true face" of the warrior.
Recognizing and appreciating the basic goodness of life as it is, being compassionate to yourself and others, and living each moment with genuineness sounds simple but as we all know is anything but simple. Hence the need for teachers and guides (or whatever term you want to use) where Chogyam Trungpa is one that we all could learn from with this book serving as a foundational guide for a path well-worth traveling."
