About
This essential practice of Kadam Lamrim, known as The Kadampa Way of Life, contains two texts: Advice from Atisha’s Heart and Je Tsongkhapa’s The Three Principal Aspects of the Path. The first encapsulates the way of life of the early Kadampa practitioners, whose example of purity and sincerity we should all try to emulate. The second is a profound guide to meditation on the stages of the path, Lamrim, which Je Tsongkhapa composed based on the instructions he received directly from the Wisdom Buddha Manjushri.
If we try our best to put Atisha’s advice into practice, and to meditate on Lamrim according to Je Tsongkhapa’s instructions, we will develop a pure and happy mind and gradually progress towards the ultimate peace of full enlightenment. As Bodhisattva Shantideva says:
By depending upon this boat-like human form,
We can cross the great ocean of suffering.
Since such a vessel will be hard to find again,
This is no time to sleep, you fool!
Practising in this way is the very essence of the Kadampa way of life.
