Recommended Lamrim Learning Resources?

JaySon

Anyone recommend any resources on Lamrim?

I'm learning a lot from Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's The New Meditation Handbook.

I'm interested in reading Je Tsongkhapa, but afraid I'll interpret it incorrectly since the writings are hundreds of years old.

Looking for more modern, easy-to-understand resources.

I have always liked Thubten Chodron's approach. She has a lot of youtube videos (on many different things, i've not look for Lamrim in particular). She has a good outline (click on the PDF/icon that looks like a book) on this page as well that is pretty spelled out and easy to understand.

Thanks for the recommendation, @dhammachick . I like Lama Surya Das too.

FPMT has a good series of videos that follow the general outline of the Lamrim.

This playlist has the first 8 but there are some more

Atisha's Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment is comprehensive, and the link below is to a very good modern translation and commentary. You can get it on Amazon Kindle for about $15 US (or a used one for under $4.

Here's another window for free: Just click on the icon of the book in the upper left and you can download the book in pdf:

Well, I'll try again below, where I'll have more editing options.

Thanks for that @Nirvana, I've saved it to my iBooks for reading once I've caught up with my post-Christmas glut.
