Description

Jampal Norbu examines the main practice of Bodhichitta, which rests at the heart the Lojong text. Bodhichitta is the aspiration to attain enlightenment in order to benefit all beings and to assist them in attaining freedom from suffering. An examination of this aspiration reveals the deep rooted intention that runs through all the teachings and slogans of Lojong. Bodhichitta is present in all Mahayana practices, and those who take up the path and practice of bodhichitta are known as bodhisattvas. Theme music by Matt Quentin
