Mind Training

One of the most important and influential works of mind training composed in Tibet, this series of slogans was first composed—that is, written down—by Chekawa Yeshe Dorje (1101–1175) according to the tradition of Atiśa Dīpaṃkara (982–1055?). The seven points cover: 1) the preliminaries, 2) main practice, 3) transformation of adversity, 4) lifelong application of the practice, 5) measures of progress, 6) commitments, and 7) precepts.
Seven Points of Mind Training
This version of the Seven Points of Mind Training, which is included in the Damngak Dzö collection, accords with the commentary by Gyalse Tokme Zangpo (1297–1371)—in its sequence of the slogans and in its annotations.
