Date of Advice:
Date Posted:
A geshe with serious life obstacles asked Rinpoche for advice on what to do. Rinpoche observed that these practices should be done before the end of the year.
Next year, after the next Tibetan New Year, is very bad for you and there are serious life obstacles.
Please do the following before the end of this year:
- Amitayus Long Life Sutra (Tib: tse dö): To be done effectively 500 times.
- Prajnaparamita: To be recited once, effectively.
- Amitayus (Tib: tse pa mä) retreat: 200,000 mantras, to be done effectively. You can still take time out to teach.
- After the new year, the center can offer a long-life puja for you.
- Arya Sanghata Sutra: To be recited twice by the Kopan Lama Gyupas.
