37 Practices of a Bodhisattva with Venerable Yonten

“Here I have set down for those who wish to follow the bodhisattva path,
Thirty-seven practices to be adopted by all the buddhas’ heirs,
Based on what is taught in the sūtras, tantras and treatises,
And following the instructions of the great masters of the past.”

-This was composed in a cave near Ngulchu Rinchen by the monk Gyalse Tokme Zangpo, a teacher of scripture and reasoning, for his own and others’ benefit.
