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.

"As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear-headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter."                                                                                                                                                                                                         Max Planck (theoretical physicist)
