Essence of the Buddha’s Teachings – Three Principle Aspects of the Path with Geshe Phuntsok Tsultrim
Buddha gave 84,000 teachings and the enormity of them can be overwhelming! These few short verses, the Three Principle Aspects of the Path, composed by Lama Tsong Khapa, are a beautiful and succinct guide to achieving happiness, drawing directly on the Buddha’s teachings.
Geshe Phuntsok Tsultrim was born in Tibet in 1969. At the age of 14 he became a monk and was admitted to Sera Je monastery, where he was awarded his Geshe degree in 2005. Geshela spent a further two years studying tantra at Gyume Tantric Monastery. Geshela was appointed to the position of teacher of Buddhist philosophy at TCV School, Bylakuppee in 2006 where he spent two years teaching. He has been the resident Geshe at Chenrezig Institute for the past 5 years.
