LYWA director Nick Ribush writes: The story behind this book is that in the early Kopan Monastery courses, Lama Zopa Rinpoche would start his day's teachings by quoting a verse from Shantideva's or Khunu Lama Rinpoche's seminal texts, giving a short teaching on it and then suggesting that students use it to generate a bodhicitta motivation for the day's activities (mainly teachings, meditations and discussion groups but also ordinary activities such as eating, talking, walking around and so forth). Since those days I've always thought that a compilation of these short teachings would make a great book, and finally, here it is.
Editor Gordon McDougall has assembled Rinpoche's teachings into two parts, sorted by author of the verses and arranged thematically.
In Part One, Lama Zopa Rinpoche teaches on selected verses from Khunu Lama Rinpoche's Jewel Lamp, now published as Vast as the Heavens, Deep as the Sea. Lama Zopa Rinpoche advises, "Understanding and constantly reminding ourselves of the skies of benefits that bodhicitta brings is unbelievably worthwhile. This is the overall purpose of Khunu Lama Rinpoche's book, to cause us to feel inspired and joyful that such a mind is possible."
In Part Two, Rinpoche teaches on verses from the first chapter of Shantideva's Guide. These verses describe the amazing benefits of developing the precious mind of bodhicitta, the supreme cause of happiness for all sentient beings.
