Path to Enlightenment in Tibetan Buddhism

Enlightenment is the ultimate development of the potential of our mind, a state of peace and bliss that can be of  great benefit to oneself and others.

Drawing from the sutras and great Buddhist classics, the Path to Enlightenment combines the intellectual rigour of Tibetan scholars with a clear and easy to understand presentation of the progressive stages of spiritual development. It covers the full breadth and depth of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy with clear explanations of how to put it into practice.

The Path to Enlightenment is an anthology of Geshe Acharya Thubten Loden’s teachings drawn primarily from Je Tsong Khapa’s Great Exposition of the Stages of the Path and Phabongkha Rinpoche’s Liberation in the Palm of your Hand. It also includes a translation and explanation of the Mind Training in Seven Points by Geshe Chekawa and a complete presentation of the Bodhisattva vows.

The Path to Enlightenment includes full colour plates, 26 line drawings, a comprehensive English, Tibetan and Sanskrit glossary, a page numbered outline and an 82 page appendix of quotations.
