Publisher's Summary
It can be hard for those of us living in the 21st century to see how 14th-century Buddhist teachings still apply. When you’re trying to figure out which cell phone plan to buy or brooding about something someone wrote about you on Facebook, lines like "While the enemy of your own anger is unsubdued, though you conquer external foes, they will only increase" can seem a little obscure. Thubten Chodron’s illuminating explication of Togmay Zangpo’s revered text, The Thirty-Seven Practices of Bodhisattvas, doesn’t just explain its profound meaning; in dozens of passages she lets her students and colleagues share first-person stories of the ways that its teachings have changed their lives. Some bear witness to dramatic transformations - making friends with an enemy prisoner-of-war, finding peace after the murder of a loved one - while others tell of smaller lessons, like waiting for something to happen or coping with a minor injury.

Feminist credit
With the word Bhikshuni, it becomes clear that the author is a female and it makes sense that a female narrate. A male narrator and an unusual eastern name of the author that most of the world would not know, it kind of hides that fact that this knowledge is shared by a female author.

path to endure suffering
Awesome ideas never taught this seriously by any books or schools of thought I came across..A hard path as we often find our Ego stands in the way of surrender, submission and humility.A rigorous but attractive road to liberation from the Bodhisattvas.
This book can change the way you think into a life of self-pity ,and never ending stressful life
