After granting a sublime empowerment, Gen-la began a commentary to the practice of Tara based on the sadhana Liberation from Sorrow.

These beautiful teachings sounded like they came from Venerable Geshe-la himself - always authentic and always practical.

Throughout, Gen-la emphasised the need not just to gain spiritual knowledge, precious as it may be, but to turn this unto genuine spiritual experience. As Gen-la said:

"Spiritual knowledge does not protect us; it has to be spiritual experience."
