Thirty Seven Practices of the Bodhisattvas (Tib. རྒྱལ་སྲས་ལག་ལེན་སོ་བདུན་མ་, gyalsé laklen so dün ma, Wyl. rgyal sras lag len so bdun ma) — an important lojong text by Gyalsé Tokmé Zangpo. In thirty seven verses, it gives instructions on how to follow the bodhisattva path. Kyabjé Trulshik Rinpoche has said that the Eight Verses of Training the Mind represents the short version of lojong, the Thirty Seven Practices is the medium, and the Bodhicharyavatara is the extensive version.

In recent years, the text was taught and commented upon extensively by Ngawang Tendzin Norbu.
