About this title
Regard your body as a vessel,With this translation, gleaming in its clarity, a Buddhist classic becomes an English classic. Worthy of recitation and committing to memory, Shantideva's words on such topics as doing good, reading sutras, guarding the mind, keeping good company, and on the nature of the mind and reality can take on a life of their own, to grow and blossom in a new native tongue. The text booms, like the voice of a Shakespearean actor, as if it were not the bodhisattva but the book itself that proclaims:
A simple boat for going here and there.
Make of it a wish-fulfilling gem
To bring about the benefit of beings.
And now as long as space endures,--Brian Bruya
As long as there are beings to be found,
May I continue likewise to remain
To drive away the sorrows of the world.
