The basic premise of Ruling Your World is that by slowing down, cutting aggression, and cultivating compassion and wisdom, we can rule our minds, our lives, and ultimately, the future of the earth. In 2006, Ruling Your World was named best book in the consciousness/self help category by the Coalition for Visionary Resources, an association of leading-edge retailers, and tied for best book overall.

In the West, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche serves as temporal and spiritual director of Shambhala. The Sakyong—literally "earth-protector"—is a "dharma king" and lineage holder of Shambhala, a tradition that emphasizes confidence in the enlightened nature of all beings, and teaches a courageous life, based on wisdom and compassion. Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche has written two books: the national bestseller, Turning the Mind into an Ally, and Ruling Your World, He is also an avid poet, artist and athlete. The Sakyong has run a number of marathons to raise money for the Konchok Foundation, an organization dedicated to serving the spiritual, cultural, educational and humanitarian needs of the Tibetan people in the Kham and Golok regions of eastern Tibet.
