Bodhicitta

One is unlikely ever to receive a Tibetan Buddhist teaching on either sutra or tantra in which Bodhicitta does not have a central role. Bodhicitta the compassionate mind which aspires to attain full enlightenment in order to benefit beings is the very quintessence of the Mahayana path of Buddhist practice. In this practical handbook Ven. Lobsang Gyatso describes the classical methods for developing the mind of enlightenment and based on his experience as a meditator and a teacher examines a wide range of obstacles to its development.
