The Shikshasamucchaya (Skt. Śikṣāsamuccaya) or Compendium of Training or Compendium of Precepts (Tib. བསླབ་པ་ཀུན་བཏུས་, Wyl. bslab pa kun btus) by Shantideva presents clearly and in detail the conduct that Bodhisattvas should embrace at all times. It is the longest of the three texts written by Shantideva, the Sutrasamucchaya being the shorter one and the Bodhicharyavatara the middle length text. (Nagarjuna's text called Shikshasamucchaya, mentioned by Shanitdeva in the Bodhicharyavatara, is no longer available.)
Gendün Chöpel discovered an Indian manuscript of the Shikshasamucchaya at Sakya Monastery.
