DESCRIPTION
A Bodhisattva's every action is motivated by the wish to attain full enlightenment for the sake of others; to fulfil this wish he or she takes the Bodhisattva vows and keeps them by practising the six perfections-giving, moral discipline, patience, effort, concentration, and wisdom. In this welcome guide to compassionate living, Geshe Kelsang explains in detail how to take and keep the Bodhisatva vows. He gives clear and practical advice on every aspect of a Bodhisattva's moral discipline, as well as explaining a special practice for purifying our mind. With this book as our companion we can enter into the Bodhisattva's way of life and swiftly accomplish full enlightenment.
