Repeats every 2 weeks 2 times.
7:00 pm Friday, March 1, 2013

This class is restrcited to students who have taken bodhisattva vows - the material related to this practice requires a certain level of background and the commitment of the vows. For more information about the bodhisattva vows, the former abbot of Kopan Monastery, Khen Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, gave this teaching of a basic explanation of the 18 root bodhisattva vows: http://www.lamayeshe.com/index.php?sect=article&id=616

For those who have taken the vows, it is critical to learn how to keep them purely and the importance of purifying mistakes. Geshe Gelek will be offering this very special class to help us gain a clearer understanding how to keep the bodhisattva vows.

The commentary Geshe-la will be using has not been translated into English, so there's no text to bring, but it would be a good idea to have a copy of the vows to refer to during class, such as the Bodhisattva Vows book from FPMT.
