Bodhicittavivāraṇa (T. byang chub sems kyi ‘grel ba བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་ཀྱི་འགྲེལ་པ་), or "Commentary on Bodhichitta," a shastra written by Nagarjuna which belongs to his Collection of Advice.
According to the 14th Dalai Lama, the main subjects of this text are: Infinite Altruism and Right View, or the wisdom that understands shunyata.[1]
There are actually two texts attributed to Nagarjuna and bearing this title in the Tengyur, one in the sutra section and one in the tantra section.
