(2) The # Principal Paths to Buddhahood by Je Tsongkapa Lobsang Drakpa (1357-l419) I bow to all the high and holy lamas. As far as Iam able,I'll explain the essence of all high teachings of the Victors,the path that all their holy sons commend, the entry point for the fortunate seeking freedom.
(3) Listen with a pure mind,fortunate ones who have no craving for the pleasure of life, and who,to make leisure and fortune meaningful,strive to turn their minds to the path which pleases the Victors.
(4) there's no way to end,without pure renunciation,this striving for pleasant results in the ocean of life. It's becuase of their hankering life as well that beings are fettered,so seek renunciation first.
(14) The instructions below were said to Ngawang Drakpa who was a friar who lived in Tsako district,by that very learned Buddhist monk, Je Tsongkapa Lobsan Drakpa. of The Three Principal Paths to Buddhahood.
(13) When you've grasped as well as I the essential points of each of the three principal paths explained,then go into isolation,my son,daughters, make mighty efforts,and quickly win your ultimate wishe.
(12) In addition,the appearance prevents the existence extreme; emptiness that of non-existence,and if yo see how emptiness shows in cause and effect you'll never be stolen off by extreme views.
(11) At some point they no longer alternate,come together; just seeing that interdependence never fails brings realization that destroys how you hold to objects, andthen your analysis with view is complete.
(10) You've yet to realize the thought of the Able as long as two ideas seem to you disparate: the appearance of things-infallible interdependence; and emptiness-beyond taking any position.
(9) A person'sentered the path that pleases the Buddhas when for all objects,in the cycle or beyond, he sees that cause and effect can never fail,and when for him they lose all solid appearance.
(8) You may master renunciation and the wish, but unless you have the wisdom perceiving reality,you cannot cut the root of cyclic life. Make efforts in ways then to perceive interdependence.
(7) they're swept along on four fierce river currents, chained up tight in past deeds,hard to undo, stuffed in a steel cage of grasping "self." smothered in the pitch-black ignorance. In a limitless round they're born,and in their births are tortured by three sufferings without a break; think how your mothersfeel,think of what's happening to them; try to develop this highest wish
(6) Renunciation though,can never bring the total bliss of matchless Buddhahood unless it's bound oy the purest wish; and so, the wise seek the high wish for enlightment.
(5) When you've meditated thus and feel not even a moment's wish for the good things of cyclic life, and when you begin to think both night and day of achieving freedom,you've found renunciation. (5)
(4) Leisure and fortune are hard to find,life's not long; think it constantly,stop desire for this life. think over and over how deeds and their fruits never fail,and the cycle's suffering; stop desire for the future. (4)
(3) there's no way to end,without pure renunciation,this striving for pleasant results in the ocean of life. It's because of their hankering life as well that beings are fettered,so seek renunciation first. (3)
(2) Listen with a pure mind,fortunate ones,who have nocraving for the pleasures of life, and who,to make leisure and fortune meaningful,strive to turn their minds to the path which pleases the Victors! (2)
(7) It has been written that,"We believe that by studying & practicing the teaching of the Buddha we ourselves can become Buddhas,as can every living being. therefore when we speak of enlightened beings appearing to a saint directly and so on we do not mean that Buddhist believe in a great many gods or the like, but rather that any being who has removed all his suffering,and gained all knowledge can appear to any one of us,in any form that may help us to reach this ultimate state of ourselves."
(6) Also mentioned in the forward written by Khen Rinpoche Geshe Lobsang Tharchin (l921) in the English translation of Pabongka Rinpoche's commentary of the 3 Principlal Paths, (Ram Gtzo Rnam Gsum,The key that unlocks the door to the noble path (Lam Bzang Sgo Byed)
(5) Furthurmore, Tibet Buddhism believes that," Buddha, "Did not create the universe for example(this we have done by the force of our own past deeds,good and bad,),nor can he take all our sufferings away from us by himself-these too we believecome from our own past actions,and must be stopped by ourselves"
(4) Furthurmore, Tibet Buddhist believe,it has been taught that,"We Buddhists believe that there are many Buddhas in the universe.,and that they can each appear on one or more planets at the same time,if this will help beings who livethere. We believe that a Buddha is the ultimate evolution of all life; that he can know all things,but does not have all power"
(3) Furthurmore,Tibetan Buddhists it has been taught,"Believe that great saints can selct their birth,and that out of compassion they will choose to return to teachtheir disciples again ifthis will benefit them. This it is a custom for the disciples to seek the help of some great wise men and go out to findthe child who is the reincarnation oftheir teacher."
(2) It has been taught that,"Tibetan Buddhists believe that although the body dies,the mind-since it is not destructable, like physical matter-continues on and eventually comes into a new body,withing your mother's womb if you are to be born as a human.
