This commentary on the famous text in verse, The Three Principles of the Path by Je Tsongkhapa, explains the entire path to enlightenment, summarized in its three main features: renunciation, ultimate love-compassion and wisdom.

Gelek Rimpoche’s commentary is profoundly modern. The whole teaching is wisdom-soaked and will provide the reader with an impulse to take a different look at their own life.

Especially useful in this commentary are the guided analytical meditations on the different aspects of the spiritual path.
