A new study group at Gomde, Lindholme Hall: March- May 2012
Cultivating Patience: Chapter 6 of The Way of the Bodisattva by Shantideva
Based on, and supported by, the online learning programme at Rangjung Yeshe Institute.
For details of the programme please see www.shedra.org
In the Way of the Bodisattva Shantideva brings to our attention the realities of egocentric existence, in all its pain and idiocy, and places before us the vision of a wholly new alternative, together with a practical instruction whereby that vision may become an actual experience. Chapter 6 ´Cultivating Patience´ focuses on the quality that is the antithesis to anger.
