"Soaring the Winds of Adversity", offers advice on transforming the way one views life and the obstacles that comes one's way. It shares a wealth of insight on how to live fully in our rapidly changing world, inviting us to make best use of every moment of our precious life. This advice is often practical, rooted in the realities of our world, while nonetheless not losing sight of the traditional heritage it represents, taking its source as it is in the wellspring of spiritual and philosophical traditions of the East.
Drawing from traditional wisdom as well as secular knowledge, it invites us to:
•open our minds and broaden our horizons;
•march forth unabashed by the blows life delivers us;
•and develop a vast mind capable of achieving all success.
Accessible and down-to-earth, in this book the reader will find relevant and plainspoken advice on how to courageously face and overcome the challenges every day brings.

作者簡介
Shang Longrik Gyatso Rinpoche
Shang Longrik Gyatso Rinpoche's spiritual pursuit began at a very young age and has spanned many decades, in which he received the complete lineages of all four major Vajrayana schools—Nyingma, Kagyu, Sakya, and Gelug—from numerous lineage holders and great yogis of our time in India, Tibet, Nepal and Bhutan. Rinpoche has acquired all the necessary empowerments, transmissions, and teachings to become a fully-qualified Vajrayana master. Furthermore, he is a recognized tulku (reincarnate lama), authenticated by eminent lineage holders and distinguished masters of our time.
Rinpoche is direct heir to the lineage of Shang Rinpoche (one of the "Three Jewels of Tibet") and has received the complete empowerments, transmissions and teachings pertaining thereto from his root master, the reincarnation of the great terton Tachin Dorje Lingpa. Apart from the supreme Vajrayana lineages, Rinpoche is holder of the direct lineages of the Linji and Caodong branches of the Chan school, and of the great Chan Master Xuyun. Furthermore, he is heir to the teachings of the Taoist Southern Sect (Nanzong).
Embodying, upholding and protecting such venerable and precious traditions, Rinpoche has devoted his life to spreading Buddhist teachings in order to benefit all sentient beings. For over three decades, he has been tirelessly and unceasingly guiding thousands of students and practitioners from over 25 countries. Wherever he goes, the powerful blessings of his lineages follow.
Whilst upholding authentic Dharma, Shang Rinpoche skillfully acknowledges the inherent challenges of the era we live in, using the context of modern life to impart precious teachings to his students.

序
Enacting the Dance of Everlasting Vitality
Shang Rinpoche often says, “The length of a person’s life is not important, but one must be accountable for it.” Everyone is granted a life, but are they able to live it with brilliance and meaning? Or do they simply blindly follow the crowd? The ability to decide this has always been in our hands, yet compelled by the tumultuous currents of life, some lose their sense of direction, while others have the misfortune of being submerged! In order to commandeer your sailboat with stability, you certainly must possess even greater wisdom. Perhaps we are not particularly endowed with wisdom, but please believe that in every generation there will appear a few sages who are possessed with this sense of direction and come to direct the herd of lost sheep. Or there may be some reincarnated buddhas and bodhisattvas who are unwilling to let go of or abandon those people who need them.
We must admit that information has oversaturated this age and that people’s inner ability for awareness has been blunted. It is even more terrible how the environment has worsened to the point that it renders people powerless. All sorts of illnesses which doctors are unable to do anything about have appeared one after another in this century, including spreading epidemics. Furthermore, there are diseases such as depression, bipolar disorder, and the like which are not clearly understood. It is nearly impossible to avoid these afflictive forces which plague us incessantly from morning to night. Other than spending huge sums of money to attend spiritual growth seminars, is there any other way for this generation to acquire a wisdom which is eternal? Shang Rinpoche has said, “The light of a firefly comes from within itself, and the radiance of wisdom must gradually come to illuminate and extend and proliferate from within the continual experience of frustration and defeat. Nobody can help you with this.”
Thus, Rinpoche guides us to start from inner awareness to get acquainted with our minds. How shall we coexist with our afflictions? How to trek out of the deep valley of our life? How to seize the moment, to transform ourselves, to achieve a true state of ease and allow the power with our life to extend infinitely? How to become the master of our own life? We must still begin with understanding our own mind. And how do we accomplish that? It is exactly this treasure which we now recommend to each and every reader in the form of these precious texts.
