Description
 
Of the many mind training (lojong) texts that exist, Geshe Chekawa's Seven Points for Training the Mind is one of the most complete. The mind training tradition that developed in Tibet has its source in the words of the great Indian masters Nagarjuna and Shantideva. This particular text expands on the Tibetan master Geshe Langritangpa's Eight Verses from Training the Mind. Although it was written in the twelfth century, Geshe Chekawa's advice is as relevant today as it was then because human nature has remained much the same. The text provides us with the means to transform our attitudes, gain increased mental control, develop a deeper understanding of reality and greater love, compassion and kindness towards other. Remarkably , the commitments and precepts set out by the author act as pertinent guidelines for a less stressful and more harmonious life in today's world.
