Maitreya’s Ornament for Clear Realization is the main text for the study of the levels of realization related to enlightenment according to the Madhyamaka school. This important scripture, traditionally the basis for extensive study in the monastic curriculum, makes explicit these levels presented in only a hidden manner in the Buddha’s Perfection of Wisdom teachings.

From among the seventy topics and eight chapters covered by the Ornament, chapter four has been selected for commentary in the FPMT Basic Program, with an emphasis on the meditation instructions presented by the 37 harmonies with enlightenment.
