My very dear wish-fulfilling one,
Thank you a billion, zillion times for having done over 300 nyung-näs! Wow!

As you know, you purify so much negative karma each time you do a nyung-nä. Many thousands of eons of negative karma gets purified. That also depends on your motivation, how strong your motivation of compassion, renunciation and also emptiness is, but mostly it depends on how strong your motivation of compassion is.

You have collected unbelievable, unbelievable skies of merit by taking the eight Mahayana precepts and by reciting OM MANI PADME HUM. Wow, wow, wow! So many skies of merit are collected just by doing prostrations to Chenrezig and to the Thirty-five Buddhas; and so many ways to purify eons of negative karma and to collect skies of merit. Wow, wow, wow. It is such an incredible way to develop more compassion and to become closer to enlightenment.

Then because you are fulfilling my wishes, and we have a Dharma connection, by that it also brings you to enlightenment quickest.

Of course, the purpose of doing nyung-näs is not just to win by doing the highest number. The purpose of keeping count is so that people can rejoice in the number. It’s for you and others to rejoice in.Most important, the main thing, is to do it for sentient beings—for them to be purified from the oceans of samsaric sufferings and to be free, and to achieve enlightenment as quickly as possible. 

The main motivation is not the number, not for it to be a competition between students. The motivation should be for this to be the quickest way to free sentient beings from samsara and bring them to enlightenment.

Therefore you are most lucky, most fortunate. According to a story there was a girl who killed thirteen people, but in her next life she was able to go to Amitabha Pure Land. Unbelievable, as you know the story.

It’s so great, great, great, great. You are the most fortunate person in the world. Even many people such as Nyingmas and Kagyüs who do a three-year retreat—sometimes it is possible that even though they complete a three-year retreat, they don’t know much about lam-rim. So I think you are the most fortunate one, more than many of those people.

Thank you very much. Please continue with bodhicitta, and send me letters from time to time. Thank you very, very, very much. Hope to see you soon.

Please continue to live your life, in every action with bodhicitta motivation, night and day.

With much love and prayers...
