"The Swift Path condenses Tsongkhapa’s famous Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path into a comfortable-sized manual. The English translation by Szegee Toh—a fruit of profound engagement with the subject—is always thoughtful, precise, and readable. The translation is preceded by an illuminating introduction prepared with utmost care. To anyone interested in Buddhism I highly recommend this book.”

– Yael Bentor, professor emerita, Hebrew University

“It is wonderful that Wisdom is publishing the first complete English translation of Panchen Lama Yeshe's Swift Path. Szegee Toh’s translation is excellent, as is her clear, practical introduction and extensive notes. I’m sure this volume will be of great benefit to many practitioners!”

– Sangye Khadro (Kathleen McDonald), author of How to Meditate

“In easy and engaging prose, the Panchen Lama's Swift Path comes powerfully alive for the contemporary practitioner. Rarely have I seen a Tibetan text rendered in such masterful, effortless English. With this publication, we now have all of the ‘eight great guides’ to the lamrim available in English, a landmark in the growing resources on Tibetan Buddhism.”

– Thupten Jinpa, principal English translator to His Holiness the Dalai Lama

"The Swift Path is an outstanding experiential manual presenting the stages of the path to enlightenment (lamrim). It is a perfect introduction for those who would like to explore this rich and inspiring spiritual tradition, and a practical meditation guide for those already familiar with it. This is an elegant addition to the literature on the gradual stages of the path in English.”
