Popular Buddhist teacher Chdr"n has a surprise for her many readers & students: textual commentary. Her newest book comments at length on an eighth-century text by the Indian Buddhist sage Shantideva. Its a guidebook for developing bodhichitta an awakened mind that expresses itself in compassionate action to alleviate suffering. The lengthy text will certainly be unfamiliar to beginners but Ch"dr"n is a wise choice for an escort. She is a clear teacher explaining key terms (the Sanskrit term klesha for example may be translated as neurosis or affliction) & making things simple & characteristically plainspoken (" When we are distracted we cant remember anything weve studied or read"). She is also the right kind of motivator telling readers immediately whats in it for them: this book can inspire those who want to make the world a better place.
