About this listen

 With a unique combination of ancient and contemporary wisdom from Tibetan Buddhism, The Diamond Cutter presents readers with empowering strategies for success in their personal and professional lives. The book is presented in three layers. The first is a translation of The Diamond Sutra, an ancient text of conversations between the Buddha and his close disciple Subhuti. The second contains quotes from some of the best commentaries in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. And the third layer, the main text, is the practical application of Buddhist philosophies to the world of business, based upon Geshe Michael Roach's 17-years of experience as an employee of the Andin International Diamond Corporation, a company that grew during his tenure from four employees to a world leader in the jewelry industry.

Roach's easy style and spiritual understanding make The Diamond Cutter an invaluable source of timeless wisdom for those familiar or unfamiliar with Tibetan Buddhism. His focus on practical personal and business applications has resonated with and changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals the world over since its original publication.

I like the structured system of implementing the Universal Karmic principles but I personally disagree that emptiness is the only ultimate reality.

There is a Creator and He has a name, form, qualities, associates, and desires. Reestablishing connection with Him is beyond any karma and achievements and the laws of this Universe.

This science is described in Bhagavad Gita. And there is no contradiction. Those are just different layers of perception, soul qualities and goals.

It’s a profound knowledge everyone needs
