Robert A.F. Thurman leads a close line translation of Jankya Rolway Dorje's poem "Recognition of Mother Voidness" introducing the Buddhist tradition of enlightenment songs and visionary poetics.

Using D.W. Winnocott's concept of "good enough mother" Professor Thurman gives a teaching on the radical nature of the Buddha's teachings and how their insights can provide those of any tradition valuable tools to transform their lives, relationships and the world around them.
