Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life
by Shantideva

Venerable Geshe Lobsang will teach on Shantideva’s text The Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life.

Shantideva’s text, A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life, is highly regarded by teachers of all Tibetan Buddhist traditions.

What is a bodhisattva?


In a commentary on this text, His Holiness the Dalai Lama said:

“Bodhi means enlightenment, the state devoid of all defects and endowed with all good qualities. Sattva refers to someone who has courage and confidence and who strives to attain enlightenment for the sake of all beings. Those who have this spontaneous, sincere wish to attain enlightenment for the ultimate benefit of all beings are called Bodhisattvas.”

(From: For the Benefit of All Beings, Shambhala Classics)

These teachings will occur every Wednesday and students are welcome to attend when they are available. There is no need to register prior to the teaching, simply come along.
