Geshe Jampa Thinley LojongSecond EditionThis book is compiled on the basis of Geshe Jampa Thinley’s comments to the root text of Chekawa Yeshe Dorje “The Seven Meanings of Mind Training” (Moscow, Omsk), as well as lectures on Lojong given in different years in Moscow, Ufa, Ulan- Ude Lojong, mental training, is the essential teaching of Mahayana. It is no coincidence that the practice of the Great Chariot is called in the book “the path of happiness” - following this path, a person learns to create in his mind the deep causes of happiness, as well as transform his own perception of externally unfavorable circumstances.  In ancient times, the Lojong teachings were taught only to select students because the actual practice of training the mind is difficult—requiring great courage, determination, and a deep understanding of the Buddhist Dharma. However, these comments were given to a fairly wide range of listeners. Here the practice of Lojong is presented by the author in accordance with the level and mentality of his Russian students - so that those who want to follow the spiritual path these days can apply these instructions in their daily lives.
