Khenpo Tenzin Norgey will give teachings on The Bodhisattva Way of Life, one of the most popular texts in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It was written by the great Acharya Shantideva, a famous Indian master who lived in the 7th century. The text gives detailed teachings on Bodhichitta, the precious mind of awakening, which is the main focus of Mahayana Buddhist practice. The Bodhisattva Way of Life teaches us how to cultivate Bodhichitta, sustain it without deterioration, and develop it to perfection.
