Written by the ancient Indian sage Santideva, the Bodhicaryavatara: A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life illuminates how and why to become a Bodhisattva. A source of inspiration, encouragement, and practical guidance, the Bodhicaryavatara is as relevant today as it was when it was composed over 1300 years ago. The Triratna’s Seven-fold Puja is based on the Bodhicaryavatara, and the Dalai Lama cites it as his highest inspiration. Join us as Nagabodhi leads us through a study of selected portions of this essential text. Nagabodhi is Aryaloka’s president and a senior Order member living in the United Kingdom. He visits Aryaloka annually and is especially skilled in leading study on this important text.

At Aryaloka, we strive to make our programs available to everyone regardless of their financial circumstances. Our fee structure allows you to pay according to your means. The Sustaining price is for people comfortably paying their rent or mortgage, and who can afford the occasional meal out and movie. The Sustaining price level also helps Aryaloka offer lower prices to those who could otherwise not afford to attend. Any payment above this price is a tax-deductible donation. Mid-Level prices are for those who have a regular income and are paying their mortgage or rent. Prices at this level contribute to the range of Aryaloka’s operating costs. The Base-Level price is for those without an income or with an income low enough that making ends meet is a challenge. Those whose circumstances are not included above can call the office to arrange alternate pricing.
