Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life

My title:
My introduction:

The poem is written from the point of view of a practitioner and provides an extraordinary insight into the process of inner transformation one goes through while traversing the Bodhisattva path.

No one can read this epic work and remain unmoved.

Geshe Kelsang provides a detailed commentary to the poem in his book Meaningful to Behold.

“ …the book itself is beautifully realized, original brush and ink paintings introduce each section and even the paperback possesses an attractive texture. The poetry is lucid and refined, even as Shantideva moves into involved discussions of Madhyamika philosophy, and a glossary is included to help the reader sort out technical terms. This text can serve as an excellent introduction to the Mahayana tradition, or be studied in depth with a commentary such as Meaningful to Behold”
