The book was prepared and published by the St. Petersburg Buddhist temple “Datsan Gunzechoiney” on the initiative of the rector of the datsan Jampa Donyod (Buda Balzhievich Badmaev). The book is based on audio recordings of lessons conducted by Pande Lama at the St. Petersburg Buddhist Temple “Datsan Gunzechoiney” in 2010-2012. The book also includes reflections of the Pande Lama, written in home notebooks, wise advice for every day, publications of articles and some translations of texts from the Tibetan language, previously published in the Buddhist popular science magazine Legshed. Pande Lama had a deep knowledge of Buddhist texts and an extraordinary talent for clearly explaining complex philosophical concepts. The book will be useful both for those who are discovering Buddhist truths for the first time and for practicing Buddhists. We express our deep gratitude to Geshe-Gabju Yeshe Zhigma for his help in editing the lessons (Dimbryl Dashibaldanov), rector of the Buddhist University “Dashi Choynkhorlin” named after.
