But they’re also skills we can and should develop right now, in our messy, ordinary lives.\n\nIn this clear, comprehensive guide to the backbone of Mahayana Buddhist practice, Lama Zopa Rinpoche walks us through each of the six perfections:\n\n- charity\n- morality\n- patience\n- perseverance\n- concentration\n- wisdom\n\nAs he carefully describes each perfection, he not only reveals the depth of its meaning and how it intertwines with each other perfection, but he also explains how to practice it fully in our everyday lives—offering concrete ways for us to be more generous, more patient, more wise. With the guidance he gives us, we can progress in our practice of the perfections until we, like the bodhisattvas, learn to cherish others above ourselves.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 161429819X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.161429819X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Lama Zopa Rinpoche\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
