In this podcast Gen Menla gives some encouragement to train in watching our mind so that we will be able to carry our calm centre with us. He goes on to focus on the delusion of self-cherishing, which constantly disturbs our mind and is the biggest obstacle to our happiness. This is an extract from a teaching given at KMC Texas based on the book The New Eight Steps to Happiness by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
