As Je Tsongkhapa clearly explained, we can attain enlightenment only through the union of sutra and tantra.
When we memorise Dharma books, ritual prayers and sadhanas that we intend to use ourself, we are storing a huge treasury of precious dharma in the storehouse of our mind. Later Dharma will come naturally from our mind
Developing the three types of love and in particular understanding that in samsara no-one experience true happiness. In this way we develop the wish to practice giving happiness so that they may be truly happy.
Nothing ‘out there’ can take those pain away, but only minds that are the opposite of those experiences: compassion and wisdom.
If we understand the benefits of Taking and Giving we will naturally engage in the practice.
If we develop the wish to abandon samsara, we will look for a method to do this. Only Buddha teaches this method. Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha are the real wishfulfilling Jewels.
Everything starts with imagination. By using our imagination we can make the reality we wish for an actual reality.
Taking the real meaning of human life is freedom. Freedom depends on what we want.
We can develop compassion through developing Affectionate love, Cherishing love and Wishing love-wishing all beings to be happy. Then compassion will naturally arise. Compassion is a mind that is motivated by cherishing others and wishes them to be free from suffering.
We wish to become a Buddha, not for our own glory, but simply so that we have all the qualities to liberate all living beings from their suffering.
