The Six Perfections of generosity, ethical discipline, patience, enthusiastic effort, concentration, and wisdom are practiced by Bodhisattvas who have the supreme intention of attaining enlightenment for the sake of others. These six are perfections because they give rise to complete enlightenment. Practice of them also insures the attainment of an excellent body and mind in the future and even more favorable conditions for effective practice than those we enjoy at present. Generosity leads to the enjoyment of ample resources, ethical discipline gives a good rebirth, patience leads to an attractive appearance and supportive companions, enthusiastic effort endows the ability to complete what is undertaken, fostering concentration makes the mind invulnerable to distraction, and wisdom discriminates between what needs to be cultivated and what must be discarded and leads to greater wisdom in the future.

The six "perfections" (paramitas), namely: giving charity, upholding the precepts, patience, diligence, meditation, and prajna-wisdom are often thought of as part of the Mahayana Buddhism's bodhisattva path. The word paramita in Sanskrit means "to cross over"; the implication is that by practicing these perfections, one can cross over from Samsara (the world of birth, death, and suffering) to Nirvana (the ultimate bliss). Venerable Master Hsing Yun writes, "These six perfections will benefit not only others but the one who practices them as well. They are for the liberation of others and also for oneself; they belong to others and oneself."

A practical and actionable guide to the six perfections, a backbone of the Buddhist path, by an internationally beloved teacher. The six perfections are the actions of the bodhisattvas—holy beings who have transcended selfless concerns. But they’re also skills we can and should develop right now, in our messy, ordinary lives. In this clear, comprehensive guide to the backbone of Mahayana Buddhist practice, Lama Zopa Rinpoche walks us through each of the six perfections: -charity -morality -patience -perseverance -concentration -wisdom As 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.

The translation is by the American monk, Bhikshu Dharmamitra. This volume includes facing-page source text in both traditional and simplified scripts as well as extensive text-structure outlining provided by the translator.

Collected from across the vast Buddhist scriptures, these stories show both the depth of the Buddha¿s wisdom and the warmth of his compassion. Traveling to the other Shore is an excellent way for readers to learn from the Buddha¿s life and practice.
