Commentary on the Difficult Points of the "A Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment" (84000)
FULL TEXT
Description
Atiśa's commentary on the difficult points of his Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment. The text says bodhisattvas must first follow one of the sets of prātim okṣa disciplinary rules; based on those precepts, they practice the six perfections
(pāramitā); with those perfections as a solid foundation, they finally practice Buddhist tantra. (Source: "Bodhimārgapradīpa." In The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism, 133. Princeton University Press, 2014. http://www.jstor.org/stable/j.ctt46n41q.27.)
