A student wrote that they had started hearing voices and asked Rinpoche if they were experiencing spirit harm.

My most dear, most kind, most precious, wish-fulfilling one,

You need torgya puja (ten wrathful deities burning torma), to be done by Gyume Monastery in South India. It’s a really big puja and I’m not sure if they will accept to do it, but let me know. If not Gyume, then ask Ganden Shartse. They have to do preparation for a few days and then do the puja. It’s a big puja, so you’ll need to discuss it with the monastery.

Lü dang sadag gi don drol (ཀླུ་དང་ས་བདག་གི་གདོན་སྒྲོལ་ ; Liberating from the naga and landlord harm), to be done by Geshe-la at your center. You need to be present for this puja. So please request this from Geshe-la.

You also need to recite the Most Secret Hayagriva mantra. If you have received the initiation then try to follow the sadhana but at least recite the mantra. Do more mantras and pray hard to Most Secret Hayagriva.

Please try this.

With much love and prayers ...
