About this listen

Treasured by Buddhists of all traditions, The Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhicharyavatara) is a guide to cultivating the mind of enlightenment, and to generating the qualities of love, compassion, generosity, and patience. This text has been studied, practiced, and expounded upon in an unbroken tradition for centuries, first in India, and later in Tibet. Presented in the form of a personal meditation in verse, it outlines the path of the Bodhisattvas--those who renounce the peace of individual enlightenment and vow to work for the liberation of all beings and to attain buddhahood for their sake.

This version, translated from the Tibetan, is a revision by the translators of the 1997 edition.

Eternal principals very similar to Quantum Mechani

Astonishing depth and understanding of mind and happiness.
introspection , patience, diligence, hardworking, emptiness , selflessness..
some theories are perfect modern quantum mechanic's principals..
spellbound by these 1200 old wisdom.
nicely narrated.
