For those seeking peace in daily chaos.

Transcending Madness helps you understand your mind.

You can transform struggles into moments of freedom.

Discover how to transform your daily experiences and break free from the madness of your mind with Trungpa's insightful exploration of psychological states.

Our experience of the present moment is always coloured by one of the six psychological states and its characteristics - the god realm (bliss), the jealous realm (jealousy, lust for entertainment), the human realm (passion and desire), the animal realm (ignorance), the hungry ghost realm (poverty and possessiveness) and the hell realm (aggression and hatred). In relating these realms to the six Buddhist Bardo experiences, traditionally associated with life after death, the author provides an insightful look at the "madness" of our usual behaviour patterns. At the same time, the author shows how these patterns present an opportunity to transmute daily experiences into freedom.
