Synopsis
The Bodhicaryavatara, one of the central texts of Tibetan Buddhism, is now available in a modern English translation that manages to be at once accessible to contemporary readers and faithful to both the original Sanskrit and the canonical Tibetan text. With no other candidates in sight, the Wallace and Wallace translation is likely to set the standard for English translations of this seminal Buddhist text.

Publisher's Note
Composed in India in the eighth century, this work is an outstanding presentation of the Six Perfections, by which one may harmonize one's own life with the Bodhisattva ideal. It became an instant classic in the curricula of the Buddhist monastic universities of India, and its renown has grown ever since. This new translation marks the first time the Sanskrit original and the canonical Tibetan can be compared in a single work.

Industry Reviews
One of the most distinctive traits of Tibetan Buddhism is its embrace of the noble path of the bodhisattva, an enlightened one who refuses union with the bliss of nirvana until all sentient beings have achieved enlightenment. Consequently, in these writings, Santideva teaches the cultivation of the six perfections of the bodhisattva way of life generosity, ethics, patience, zeal, meditative concentration and wisdom. Few texts are as central to Tibetan Buddhism as the Bodhicaryavatara, for it is the primary source of most of the Tibetan Buddhist literature on the cultivation of altruism and the Spirit of Awakening. The two translators of this new edition bring enormous skill and sensitivity to the complex process of delivering this text from its original Sanskrit and the canonical Tibetan translation into modern English. Their use of both the Sanskrit and the Tibetan commentaries on the Bodhicaryavatara ensures that this new translation is a faithful representation of Santideva's teachings. The Wallace and Wallace edition will thus stand for many years as the standard English translation of this key Tibetan Buddhist text. (Apr.)
