INTRODUCTION TO VOLUME TWO

OLUME
T
WO OF
The Collected Works of Chögyam Trungpa
comprises five books and thirty-four articles that, loosely speaking, concern themselves with the themes of meditation, mind, and mahayana, the “great vehicle” for the development of compassion and the means to help others. The books and the first thirteen articles provide the formal or doctrinal presentation of these topics. Then follow articles that show how these concepts can be applied in specific disciplines or situations of working with others, in dialogue with other spiritual communities, and in the juicy and varied situations that life presents. There are eight articles on psychology and working with others as a psychotherapist or health professional; six articles based on a dialogue with Christian contemplatives at the Christian-Buddhist Meditation Conferences held between 1981 and 1985 in Boulder, Colorado; an article on spiritual farming; another on work; one on sex; and four on the educational philosophy of Naropa Institute (now Naropa University), a liberal arts college founded by Trungpa Rinpoche.
