A student was experiencing debilitating depression and anxiety and wrote to Rinpoche for advice.

My very dear one,
Thank you very much your kind emails, I read them all. I am sorry I didn’t get to reply your first emails. Now by doing observation I am telling you it came out very good for you to read the Vajra Cutter Sutra. Please read it three times and please read it mindfully.

Please read this very soon and read it very mindfully. It purifies negative karma collected from beginningless time and collects extensive merits and wisdom, and plants the seed of the path, particularly realizing emptiness. If you read the sutra with bodhicitta, it plants the seed of enlightenment.

Then, have this puja done: gya tong pa (8,000 Verse Prajnaparamita.) You also need lu zong puja.

This is my advice for now.

With much love and prayers ...
