The Way of the Bodhisattva with Do Tulku Rinpoche

Thursdays 1, 8 & 15 June
and Wednesday 21 June
7:30pm AEST

Join us as Do Tulku Rinpoche guides us in studying this quintessential Mahayana text.

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.

We are fortunate to have Do Tulku Rinpoche return this year to continue his teachings following the text. Known for his learned, interactive, often unconventional and humorous way of teaching, Rinpoche brings the text to life providing both the inspiration and guidance we need to bring compassion and wisdom together on the Path. Please note that you can join the series at any point.

We look forward to continuing the study of this seminal text with you. For newcomers, we welcome you to obtain a copy of the recommended reading for this course:

The Bodhisattvacaryāvatāra: The Way of the Bodhisattva (recommended translation – Shambhala Publications/Padmakara Translation Group – but others are also okay).
