Praise

"Timely Rain: Selected Poetry of Chögyam Trungpa, edited by David Rome with a foreword by Allen Ginsberg, is a compilation of previously published and unpublished poems and sacred songs by this Tibetan meditation master. They combine Trungpa's background in classical Tibetan poetry with his intuitive insight into the spirit of America. Several of the author's calligraphies accompany the collection." —Mandala

"Timely Rain offers a rare glimpse into the mind of one of the great founding fathers of Western Buddhism, in all its multi-faceted brilliance." —Jacqueline Gens, The Mirror
