E-Vam Institute is fortunate to have Do Tulku Rinpoche return to guide us in studying the quintessential Mahayana text - The Way of the Bodhisattva!
☸️The Way of the Bodhisattva (The Bodhisattvacaryāvatāra) by Shantideva is known as the path of the awakened beings, it is synonymous with the Mahayana or Great Vehicle.
In Mahayana Buddhism, the vision of the Bodhisattva inspires us to realise our own potential. Presented as a personal meditation, the text by Shantideva focuses on cultivating a mind that is happy and content: a mind that finds fulfilment in the act of wishing to benefit others.
☸️This year, Do Tulku Rinpoche will continue to guide us through the topic "Vigilant Introspection", from The Way Of The Bodhisattva.
The chapter discusses the importance of “mindfulness and vigilance” in the practice of a bodhisattva, emphasizing the need to be vigilantly aware of one's thoughts, actions, and motivations. With themes that delve into the concept of mindfulness as a means to:
- overcome distractions,
- maintain moral sensitivity in relation to self and others,
- and cultivate wisdom on the path to enlightenment.
