ATISHA'S LAMP FOR THE PATH TO ENLIGHTENMENT, commentary by Geshe Sonam Rinchen, translated and edited by Ruth Sonam

Atisha's text thus became the source of the lamrim tradition, or graduated stages of the path to enlightenment, an approach to spiritual practice incorporated within all schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Geshe Sonam Rinchen draws out Atisha's meaning with warmth and wit, bringing the light of this age-old wisdom into the modern world.
