Description: THREE key chapters of Nagarjuna's fundamental stanzas on the middle way: recorded April 28-30th, 2004 at the Kalachakra teachings in Toronto, Canada, as a preliminary teaching for the Kalachakra empowerment ceremony conducted in Toronto, Canada in May 2004. English translation by Dr. Thupten Jimpa.
Taking three crucial chapters of Nagarjuna's Fundamental Stanzas on the Middle Way -- chaptesr 18, 24, and 26--the Dalai Lama presents a comprehensive introduction to the key elements of Buddhist philosophy and meditative practice. From the Buddhist foundational teaching on the Four Noble Truths and the Twelve Links of Dependent Origination to the profound philosophy of emptiness, the Dalai Lama's teaching covers the entire gamut of Buddhist thought and The path to full awakening.
Revered in all major traditions of Mahayana Buddhism that's one of the greatest masters of Buddhism,Nagarjuna's writings have exerted a powerful influence on the development of Buddhism in many parts of Asia, where historically Mahayana on a form of Buddhism flourished. From China to Japan, korea, and Vietnam In the east and southeast Asia, from Tibet to Mongolia, and the trans-Himalayan regions of India in inner in South Asia, Buddhists have memorized, study, analyze, and implemented into spiritual practice the teachings of the second century Indian Buddhist master for nearly two millennia. To help bring the central elements of these teachings within a practical framework, the Dalai Lama relates his exposition of Nagarjuna's chapters with a short text entitled Three Principle Aspects of the Path why the Tibetan master Tsongkhapa.
The teachings featured in this DVD represent one of the most comprehensive lectures on Buddhism as yet given by the Dalai Lama in the West, effectively demonstrating that the Tibetan tradition is the genuine continuation of the nobel Nalanda tradition of Indian Buddhism.
