DESCRIPTION:
Our website offers immediate access to thousands of pages of teachings and hundreds of audio recordings by some of the greatest lamas of our time. Our photo gallery and our ever-popular books are also freely accessible there. One of Atisha's main accomplishments in Tibet was his writing of the seminal text, A Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment, in which he extracted the essence of all 84,000 teachings of the Buddha and organized them into a clear, step-like arrangement that makes it easy for any individual practitioner to understand and practice the Dharma. About one thousand years ago, the great Indian pandit and yogi, Dipamkara Shrijnana (Atisha), was invited to Tibet to re-establish the Buddhadharma, which had been suppressed and corrupted for almost two centuries. Please help us increase our efforts to spread the Dharma for the happiness and benefit of all beings. In bringing together Atisha, Lama Tsong Khapa and His Holiness the Dalai Lama, this book offers readers one of the clearest and most authoritative expositions of the Tibetan Buddhist path ever published, and it is recommended for those at the beginning of the path, the middle and the end.This book is made possible by kind supporters of the Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive w
loved it As always his holiness gives very precise and in debth instructions. His insights are very precious and jewels of the bodhicitta path.. "adds clarity about some difficult-to-grasp issues in the Buddhist canon" according to harborsparrow. Of the several books I've read by the Dalai Lama, this one was the most useful to my struggle to understand the writings of the Pali Canon directly. The interpretations of Tsong Khapa's written word get into the nits and grits of Buddhist beliefs, and the D. L.'s clarity on these subjects is unsurpassed.. This will make your mind more still and your heart more open Awesome as always. His Holiness always delivers. The best teacher on loving kindness on the planet. Your mind will be more still and your heart more open.
