Outstanding collection of 5 teachings given by Lama Zopa Rinpoche in New York City in 1990, with the first two talks given at Columbia University and the last three teachings given at the Great Enlightenment Temple (in the Bronx?).
Full text and audio of the teachings are available from the Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive here:
