The
Thirty-Seven Practices
of a Bodhisattva
By
Ngulchu Thogme
In very few
words, this text
offers all the key points of spiritual practice in a manner that is
clear and
easy to understand. It
includes
explanations on developing bodhichitta and practicing the six
perfections, calm
abiding, and special insight. It also contains many profound methods
for
carrying adversity onto the path.
The study and
contemplation of
these teachings provides an excellent means for developing spiritual
practice.
Through logic and reasoning, confidence arises from the very core of
our
being. We become
inspired to sincerely
apply ourselves to the ultimate path, to abandon all activities which
bring
small results, and to rejoice in the practice that bears great fruit.
