Publisher's Review
Friendly practice guide
The content of the lecture on the ‘Entry into the Bodhi Path’ given by the Dalai Lama forms the core of this book.
The "Treatise on the Bodhi Path" is a treatise that has become the root of Tibetan Buddhist practice.
This treatise contains specific instructions on how to cultivate the wisdom-filled, good mind of Bodhicitta and compassion, and lead a peaceful life.
The Dalai Lama's affection for the "Buddhist Sutra" is special.
The Dalai Lama, who has been reading the “Entry to the Bodhi Path” since his teenage years and has been practicing based on it, asserts this:
“There is no better treatise to guide us towards happiness and a noble life.” In this book, the Dalai Lama explains in great detail the nature of life and death, the nature of the mind, and methods of practice based on his own experiences.
How will you face death?
In order to realize the purpose of life, the topic of 'how to die' is discussed as extensively as the topic of 'how to live'.
This is also a characteristic of Tibetan Buddhism.
In Tibetan Buddhism, the question of 'how to die' is as much addressed as the question of 'how to live'.
And it teaches us to look at the issues of life and death as they really are.
I encourage you to see things as they are, without being afraid to face them and painting over them with illusions.
Death is as important as life is because death is seen as the beginning of another life.
The point this book emphasizes is concise.
“It is easier for a person who has lived a peaceful life to end his life peacefully, and it is easier for a person who has died peacefully to start a new peaceful and happy life.
To be happy, you must have peace of mind, and to have peace of mind, you must be a good person.
To be a good person, you must not be tempted by the temptations of delusion.
So, practice is necessary.
The practice is to tame the unruly mind.
Buddhist practice is learning and practicing how to tame the mind.
Buddhist practice is to tame the mind, cultivate a good heart, and eliminate delusion without any attachment.
“So, Buddhist practice suggests a path to happiness.”
The Dalai Lama, the greatest intellectual and spiritual teacher of the 21st century
The Dalai Lama is considered the greatest spiritual teacher and intellectual of our time.
Wherever he is, it is always lively.
It's fun.
It is charming to see him let out a playful laugh, then quickly straighten his posture, seriously discuss the Dharma, and then fall into deep meditation.
In this book, the Dalai Lama shows his compassionate side by generously sharing his wisdom.
This aligns with the passage that says the purpose of Buddhist practice is to create people with warm hearts and kind minds.
Listening to the Dalai Lama's lectures, the meaning and purpose of life become clear.
It makes me think that I should live my life worthily now that I have been given a human body.
The clarity of the lecture is a masterpiece.
Another characteristic of the Dalai Lama's lectures is that they are specific and logical.
This is also a characteristic of Tibetan Buddhism.
Tibetan Buddhism likes specific explanations, so there are many commentaries.
The Dalai Lama's lectures, which follow this tradition, are like reading a detailed commentary.
Explain the topic of the lecture in a specific and logical manner so that the audience can understand it accurately.
This book captures that characteristic well.
The teachings of the Dalai Lama are a spiritual asset of our time.
Through his teachings, you will discover the path to ultimate peace and ultimate happiness.
And you will learn the skills to live happily and to die peacefully.
