THREE PRINCIPAL ASPECTS OF THE PATH
VAJRAYANA INSTITUTE, SYDNEY (January 22, 23 & 24 2013)

OVERVIEW

The path to enlightenment can be condensed into three principal aspects:

1) renunciation - the determination to be free from samsara and attain liberation
2) bodhicitta - the aspiration to become fully enlightened in order to benefit all sentient beings
3) wisdom - the wisdom of emptiness realizing the nature of reality.

The text 'The Three Principal Aspects of the Path' by Lama Tsongkhapa outlines these three core elements of the path.

“When we apply the principles of quantum physics to the entire universe, as Wheeler and Zeilinger advocate, the whole of nature exists in a quantum superposition state consisting of an infinite array of possibilities. According to Hawking, every possible version of a single universe exists simultaneously in that quantum superposition. When you choose to make a measurement, you select from this range of possibilities a subset of histories that share the specific features measured. The history of the universe as you conceive of it is derived from that subset of histories. In other words, you choose your past.”
