The ‘Bodhisattva's Way of Life’ by Shantideva: 2010 Spring and Summer program

The current main texts covered are the ‘Bodhisattva's Way of Life’ by Shantideva, and "Letter to King Gautamiputra" by Nagarjuna. These are foundational Mahayana texts which are directly applicable to modern life, and at the same time they provide a deep perspective on Tibetan Buddhism by covering the core Mahayana teachings and concepts.
