The Bodhisattva Way of Life Teaching by Khenpo Sonam
November 15 to 17
Until all sentient beings achieve the well-being and happiness of Buddhahood, may their state of happiness never degenerate. May all beings achieve the uninterrupted well-being and happiness of Bodhisattvas. The Bodhicharyavatara was written by Shantideva, a famous scholar and yogi of India in the 8th century. The Way of Bodhisattva is a guide to cultivating the mind of enlightenment. It details the methods of generating the qualities of love, compassion, generosity, and patience.
