Je Tsong Khapa
Lobsang Drakpa
(1357-1419)
“In order to extend enormously my own virtue
And to show the entrance without error in a way appropriate
To the many fortunate persons of clear discernment,
I wrote this record of my education.
By the mass of virtues thus attained,
May all beings, through this same procedure,
Maintain the unexcelled discipline of the Buddha,
And enter the path that pleases all the Victors!”
