John Whitney Pettit - Mipham's: Beacon of certainty

Description
Mipham's: Beacon of Certainty (full title: Mipham’s Beacon of Certainty: Illuminating the View of Dzogchen) is a seminal book by scholar John Whitney Pettit that provides an authoritative translation and penetrating analysis of The Beacon of Certainty, a famous 19th-century philosophical text written by the Tibetan Buddhist master Jamgön Ju Mipham Gyatso.
For centuries, Dzogchen was often misunderstood by critics as an anti-rational, purely mystical practice. Mipham's text brilliantly turns this on its head by employing rigorous philosophical debate to defend the practice, proving that profound spiritual realization is perfectly compatible with human reasoning.
