Description: With a unique combination of ancient and contemporary wisdom from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, "The Diamond Cutter" presents readers with empowering strategies for success in their work and personal lives. Michael Roach, one of the great teachers today of Tibetan Buddhism, has richly woven "The Diamond Cutter" in three layers. The first is a translation of The Diamond Sutra itself, an ancient text comprised of conversations between the Buddha and his close disciple Subhuti. Considered a central work by all Buddhists, The Diamond Sutra has been the focus of much interpretation over the centuries. In the second layer, Roach quotes from some of the best commentaries of the Tibetan tradition. In the main text, the third layer, Roach uses both Sutra and commentary as a jumping-off point for presenting his own teaching. Roach gives fresh insight into ancient wisdom by using examples from his own experience as a founder of the Andin International Diamond Corporation, which he started with capital of fifty thousand dollars and which today has annual sales in excess of one hundred million dollars. Much of the success of Andin has come from applying the business strategies presented in "The Diamond Cutter". Roach's easy style and spiritual understanding make this work of timeless wisdom an invaluable source for those already familiar and those unfamiliar with Tibetan Buddhism.
