This is a great commentary, so my review is just a subjective reaction. Not having become a monk, the specific nature of the admonitions did not resonate with me so deeply. A great book for deepening understanding of this Buddhist text, however. Also probably great for some lay people, particularly those who are trying to adopt a particular type of lifestyle, in order to achieve spiritual goals.
