Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life Chapter 3

Chapter Three first completes the preliminaries through the generation of bodhimind, the altruistic aspiration to become a fully enlightened being in order to help others, then explains how to take Bodhisattva vows, and what to do thereafter.

The Bodhisattvacharyavatara is among the most beloved and inspiring works in the Mahayana tradition. Gelek Rinpoche’s oral explanations of each verse provide us with the key to unlock this hidden treasure, this practical manual of training and inspiration that reveals how Bodhisattva’s deal with their lives, and how we can learn to do the same.
