Compassion at the Center

Lets take a closer look at the deepest wisdom of the Buddha's: Compassion. This class offering is an extensive commentary with chapter notes, open Q&A and cross translation work regarding the "Guide to the Bodhisattva Way of Life", written by 6th century Indian scholar and monk Shantideva. Considered the foremost spiritual guide in the generation of Bodhichitta, Shantideva's text beautifully illustrates the personal and social importance of compassion. His clear and brilliant verses resonate with our deepest wishes and compel us to see the value of our greatest human characteristic.
