"Happiness and suffering are dependent upon your mind, upon your interpretation. They do not come from outside, from others. All of your happiness and all of your suffering are created by you, by your own mind," says Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Commenting on an early-twentieth-century Tibetan text of instructions and practical advice for everyday spiritual living, Lama Zopa Rinpoche teaches us how to be happy during hard times by adopting skillful attitudes--ways of interpreting reality that can permit us to live a joyful and relaxed life regardless of circumstance. In Transforming Problems Into Happiness, Lama Zopa Rinpoche brings his own special flavor and contemporary relevance to a timeless teaching on Buddhist psychology. This volume will be valuable to all, no matter the spiritual background of the reader or the kind of problems that have led them to ask that ageless question: How can I achieve happiness? This new edition includes a translation of the root text, Dodrupchen Rinpoche's (1865-1926) Instructions on Turning Happiness and Suffering into the Path of Enlightenment, translated by Tulku Thundop.

Lama Zopa uses two sources for his commentary: in addition to the first part of Dodrupchen Rinpoche Ill’s text, “Using Suffering as the Path to Enlightenment,” he also uses the Gelukpa Lama Pabongka’s “thought transformation” section of his larger treatise known as “Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand.” At the end of this little volume there is a short glossary of some key Buddhist concepts as well as a list of suggested further readings.
For the curious reader who may want to consult an actual translation of the entire text by Dodrupchen Rinpoche III, it was published in Tulku Thondup’s Enlightened Living (Shambhala, 1990).
Finally, it is to be noted that after a decade or so of many works devoted to the Tantric forms of Tibetan Buddhism, the foundational texts of the Mahayana finally seem to be gaining a greater degree of attention. Indeed, for both the interested general reader, and the committed practitioner, Transforming Problems can now be read side by side with two other works of the “thought transformation” genre: Chogyam Trungpa’s Training the Mind and Cultivating Loving-Kindness (Shambhala, 1993), and Dilgo Khyentse’s Enlightened Courage (Snow Lion, 1993).
