    Cherishing others as we cherish ourself is more profound. Through cherishing all living beings as we cherish ourself we shall develop the profound universal compassion that functions as the quick path to enlightenment. This is one of the essential points of Kadam Lamrim.

    The meditation on giving brings this future result into the path, and is therefore a quick path to enlightenment that has a similar function to Tantric practice.

    As ordinary beings we have only one body that we can use, and this in reality is part of our parents’ bodies. Buddhas, however, possess four bodies simultaneously: the two Truth Bodies and the two Form Bodies, which are the Enjoyment Body and Emanation Body.

    We can use all the difficulties that we see in the world as spiritual teachings that encourage us to develop renunciation, compassion, and wisdom.

    This book is called 'Modern Buddhism' because its presentation of Dharma is designed especially for the people of the modern world. My intention in writing this book is to give the reader strong encouragement to develop and maintain compassion and wisdom.

    If everyone sincerely practices the path of compassion and wisdom all their problems will be solved and never arise again.

    Wisdom is a virtuous, intelligent mind that makes its primary mind realize its object thoroughly. A wisdom is a spiritual path that functions to release our mind from delusions or their imprints. An example of wisdom is the correct view of emptiness.

    When Buddha revealed the path to enlightenment he was said to have ‘turned the Wheel of Dharma’ because, wherever these teachings are present, deluded minds are brought under control.

    Buddhism is the practice of Buddha’s teachings, also called ‘Dharma’, which means ‘protection’. By practicing Buddha’s teachings, living beings are permanently protected from suffering.

    The objects of our meditation should be those that are meaningful objects, so that through training in meditation we can free ourself permanently from all the sufferings of this life and countless future lives, and we can attain the happiness of enlightenment, as Buddha showed.

    Meditation is an action of mind whose nature is single-pointed concentration and whose function is to make the mind peaceful and calm.

    What is the mind? Although we often talk about our mind, if someone were to ask us, ‘What is the mind?’, we would have no clear answer. Some people say that our brain is the mind, but this is incorrect. The brain cannot be the mind because it is simply a part of the body.

    When things go wrong in our life and we encounter difficult situations, we tend to regard the situation itself as our problem, but in reality whatever problems we experience come from the side of the mind.

    When we first meditate on emptiness our mind and emptiness appear to be two separate phenomena, but when we understand that all emptinesses are the same nature we shall know that this feeling of separation is simply the experience of a mistaken mind.

    In the meditation on emptiness there is no heat, no cold, no lower, no higher, no here, no there, no self, no other, no samsara – everything is equal in the peace of emptiness. This realization is called the ‘yoga of equalizing samsara and nirvana’.

    For a qualified meditator single-pointedly absorbed in emptiness, everything is equal in emptiness and all problems of attachment, anger and ignorance are solved. In this experience, everything becomes very peaceful and comfortable, balanced and harmonious, joyful and wonderful.

    A person who directly realizes emptiness, the true nature of phenomena, experiences peace and happiness day and night, life after life.

    The result of grasping at phenomena is that we develop self-cherishing, attachment, hatred, jealousy and other delusions, our mind becomes agitated and unbalanced, and our peace of mind is destroyed.

    The name Atisha, which means Peace, was given to him later by the Tibetan king Jangchub Ö because he was always calm and peaceful.
