Bodhicitta
Wisdom and Compassion as a Way of Life
བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་མཆོག་རིན་པོ་ཆེ། །
May the sublime and precious bodhicitta
མ་སྐྱེས་པ་རྣམས་སྐྱེས་གྱུར་ཅིག །
Arise in those in whom it has not arisen.
སྐྱེས་པ་ཉམས་པ་མེད་པར་ཡང་། །
Where it has arisen, may it never decline
གོང་ནས་གོང་དུ་འཕེལ་བར་ཤོག །
But grow and flourish more and more

The understanding and practice of bodhicitta depends on the knowledge of the stories, key concepts, texts, and people associated with it. Explore these various aspects to gain a better understanding of bodhicitta, the desire to seek the ultimate happiness for all sentient beings.

Shantideva
Śāntideva is undoubtedly one of the most inspiring monk-authors in the history of Buddhism. A philosopher-poet in the ranks of Dante, Rumi, and William Blake, his writings on the cultivation of compassion and wisdom capture the highest human spirit and have influenced millions through the centuries. Śāntideva's most important work, The Way of the Bodhisattva, is a world classic and is read as part of the core curriculum in many Indo-Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Śāntideva's presentation of bodhicitta is essential reading for Buddhists and has influenced contemporary presentations of the concept profoundly even today. This website presents information and texts about bodhicitta in general but begins with a study of Shantideva's life and works.
