DESCRIPTION
The Six Preparatory Practices Adorning the Buddha's Sublime Doctrine (sbyor-ba'i chos-drug bya-tshul thub-bstan lhun-po'i mdzes-rgyan) is important as an example of that body of Tibetan literature explaining preparatory practices. It outlines the organization of Buddhist practitioner's daily meditation session, including visualizations, verses of praise, and a convenient condensation of the Graded Path (Lam-rim) contemplation. All the major points of the Graded Path meditation, including bodhicitta and right view, are touched upon. In addition, the verses of the famous and well-loved prayers Yon-tan bzhi-gyur-ma are to found herein.
