The Way of the Bodhisattva

The Way of the Bodhisattva is a spiritual path in Mahayana Buddhism focused on cultivating compassion and wisdom to help all beings attain enlightenment. A bodhisattva intentionally delays personal enlightenment to serve others' needs, practicing virtues like generosity, patience, and moral discipline. It emphasizes that true spiritual progress is intertwined with selfless actions and caring for the wellbeing of others. Ultimately, it encourages individuals to develop their fullest potential not just for themselves, but for the benefit of everyone, fostering a compassionate attitude and a commitment to alleviating suffering.
