37 Practices of the Bodhisattva – Verse 30

By Ken McLeod

Ken McLeod continues his commentary on the 37 Practices of the Bodhisattva with the 30th verse. Watch the other videos here.

30
Without wisdom, the five perfections
Are not enough to attain full awakening.
Cultivate wisdom, endowed with skill
And free from the three domains — this is the practice of a bodhisattva.
