Jamgon Kongtrul the Great (1813-1899) is renowned for his scholarly and spiritual achievements, but also for his energetic and evenhanded efforts to unify and strengthen the different lineages of Tibetan Buddhism. The Ri-me movement, led by Kongtrul and several other leading scholars, cut through interscholastic divisions that were occurring in the nineteenth century in Tibet." "This survey of the Ri-me movement includes the history and philosophy of the movement: a biography of meditation master Jamgon Kongtrul; and summaries of the major lineages' histories, practices, and views. This book is of interest to students and practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism."
