“The sun of true happiness shines in your life when you begin to appreciate others.” Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche"

The benefit and happiness of hearing and reflecting on bodhicit is immeasurable. Every time we listen to and reflect on a teaching about bodhicit, we create universes of positive merit for ourselves. These carry us further on the path to enlightenment.

Shantideva explains how to develop bodhicit in his text “Instructions on the Path to Bliss – Bodhicaryavatara.” Based on this text, Geshe Sherab will give us a teaching on this topic.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama writes about this text:

“The Bodhicharyavatara has been widely appreciated and revered for more than a thousand years. It is studied and praised by all four schools of Tibetan Buddhism.” I myself received the transmission and explanation of this important, sacred text from the late Kunu Lama Tenzin Gyaltsen, who in turn had received it from a disciple of the great Dzogchen master Dza Patrul Rinpoche. It has proven to be very useful and beneficial for my mind.
