About

The king of western Tibet sent three men to India to bring back a master who could revive the dharma. Two died in the attempt. I came. My Bodhipathapradīpa — the Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment — reorganised the entire Buddhist path into three scopes: those seeking their own happiness, those seeking liberation, those seeking full Buddhahood for all beings. Every subsequent Tibetan lam rim text is a commentary on mine. Where on the path do you find yourself?
