Description from Ediciones Dharma:
La práctica del bodisatva (o Bodisatvacharyavatara, literalmente «La aplicación de la práctica del bodisatva») es uno de los grandes clásicos del budismo mahayana.
Presentada en la forma de una meditación personal en verso, expone el camino de los bodisatvas, esos seres que, habiéndose alejado de la futilidad del samsara y sus sufrimientos, renuncian sin embargo a la paz de una liberación individual y se comprometen a trabajar para la liberación de todos los seres y a obtener la Iluminación suprema para su beneficio.
Shantideva, uno de los autores budistas indios más influyentes de la tradición mahayana, empieza su obra elogiando la mente de la Iluminación y explica en detalle cómo se cultiva. Hay capítulos sobre las perfecciones transcendentales de la paciencia, la diligencia, la meditación y la sabiduría.
Las enseñanzas sobre la meditación culminan con la profunda práctica de igualarse y cambiarse uno mismo por los demás. El célebre capítulo noveno expone las enseñanzas sobre la vacuidad, la perfección de la sabiduría, tal como se explican en el Madyamaka, o tradición del “Camino medio”. Mediante los versos de este texto, Shantideva ha sido capaz de inspirar a generación tras generación de practicantes.
Este texto, escrito originalmente en India en sánscrito, apareció por primera vez traducido al tibetano poco después de su composición en el siglo VIII y ha sido explicado, estudiado y practicado en Tíbet en una tradición ininterrumpida hasta nuestros días. En la actualidad sigue teniendo plena vigencia y es enormemente apreciado por los budistas de todas las tradiciones. (Ediciones Dharma. Source Accessed May 13, 2025)

Treasured by Buddhists of all traditions, The Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhicharyavatara) is a guide to cultivating the mind of enlightenment, and to generating the qualities of love, compassion, generosity, and patience. This text has been studied, practiced, and expounded upon in an unbroken tradition for centuries, first in India, and later in Tibet. Presented in the form of a personal meditation in verse, it outlines the path of the Bodhisattvas—those who renounce the peace of individual enlightenment and vow to work for the liberation of all beings and to attain buddhahood for their sake.
This version, translated from the Tibetan, is a revision by the translators of the 1997 edition.
