The Path to Truth

For the Modern-day Bodhisattva Practitioner

By: Shih Cheng Yen

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

"The Path to Truth" presents the principles of the Jing Si Dharma-lineage and the Tzu Chi School of Buddhism in an organized manner so that readers can gain a more comprehensive understanding. The book is divided into three parts. Part One: Pointing directly to the Bodhisattva-Path, the origins of the Tzu Chi School of Buddhism are explored, along with the gradual development of Tzu Chi's four missions. Part Two: Principles and Practices of the Modern-day Bodhisattva explains how the sutras are practiced and understood in this lineage and school of Buddhism. Part Three: From One to Infinity, Master Cheng Yen recounts twenty real-life stories as physical manifestations of the Sutra of Infinite Meanings. From this we can see that it is not necessary to seek enlightenment somewhere far away. We can all carry out the Buddha’s teachings of respecting life by relieving suffering and giving joy, and fully utilizing our abilities to do good deeds every second of our lives.
