Reviews

Guide To The Bodhisattva's Way of Life: A Buddhist Poem For Today presents the classic 8th century poem by Shantideva in an thoroughly reader accessibly and elegantly translated English text which was transcribed under the guidance of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. The poem itself offers wisdom in the art of balancing altruism with personal happiness and self-satisfaction. Shantideva's Guide To The Bodhisattva's Way Of Life is a core recommendation for dedicated Buddhist Studies collections and reading lists.--The Midwest Book Review
