A practical description of the stages of the path to the highest state from the point of view of Buddhism - complete enlightenment; text of the lam-rim genre. “This book was written not because there is some other, new Dharma not taught by Guru Shakyamuni. And, since my achievements and experience are limited, I am in no way worthy of authorship of such a work and do not particularly hope that it will benefit others. But due to the extraordinary fact that in our time, when the period of the five degenerations has already passed and there is a great danger of an atomic explosion, more and more Westerners are discovering the Buddha Dharma, like blind men gaining sight, and because it is extremely important to endow this once acquired with great meaning The eye of wisdom, which analyzes all phenomena and clearly distinguishes what is prescribed from what is not permitted, my ever kind, venerable Guru Thubten Yeshe gave the vajra instruction on the need to write such a book in English. Therefore, I do it with joy, devotion and reverence by compiling a short manual of meditation that reveals the method of daily practice, hoping that if it becomes an offering to the Masters, it will be the best reason for unifying the mind with the Dharma.“
