Heart of compassion (Shambhala Publications Inc)

The inspiring and eloquent verses found in The Thirty-seven Verses on the Practice of a Bodhisattva were composed żeby Gyalse Ngulchu Thogme (1295– 1369), an ancient Tibetan master and legendary exemplar of generosity and kindness. This classical text- a concise and easy-to-memorize distillation of the teachings presented in Shantideva' s masterwork The Way of the Bodhisattva- has been studied and followed by Tibetan monks and scholars for centuries. In this new translation, featuring the commentary of the beloved twentieth-century master Dilgo Khyentse, this treasure-text is made accessible and relevant to contemporary Buddhists.
