Description: "Generosity, ethical discipline, patience, enthusiastic effort, concentration, and wisdom are practiced by Bodhisativas with the supreme intention of attaining enlightenment for the sake of all living beings. These six are called perfections because they give rise to complete enlightenment - a perfected state in which liberation from disturbing emotions and their seeds, and from obstructions to the knowledge of all phenomena, has been attained."--BOOK JACKET.

"These six incorporate all of the Buddha's advice on the Bodhisattva way of life and include every practice needed for our own fullest development and for accomplishing the ultimate good of others."--BOOK JACKET.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [151]-[152]).
Based on the 6th Chapter of Śāntideva's Bodhicaryāvatā.
