Through relatable insights and real-life experiences, it offers guidance on overcoming challenges, deepening your meditation practice, and developing lasting inner peace, clarity, and compassion.
Universal love and compassion is the key to a pure world. As long as our min is polluted by delusions we cannot have it.
What every living being needs is a scientific method to produce real, pure happiness. That doesn’t depend on any external things, because it comes from the heart.
Important advice in Oral Instructions from Sakya Pandita. Is going for refuge like joining a club, or is it a practice?
If we find a scientific method for creating human happiness, the more we use that method the happier we become. There is no limit to how happy we can become.
If we really do not want to experience problems and suffering, we must realize emptiness
Taking a higher or lower rebirth. The four common paths. The possibility of taking the path to liberation.
‘I’ means renunciation and ‘all sentient beings’ means compassion. These are our motivation for meditating on emptiness.
Identifying the source of happiness and suffering
We must develop irreversible faith and trust in the three Jewels. The refuge prayer is our mind determining to apply effort to rely upon the three Jewels. We don’t want to be like a parrot just making sound. Actual protection is Dharma in our heart.
Becoming our own engineer of our mind
