A student was previously diagnosed with advanced osteoporosis and spinal fractures caused by hyperparathyroidism. Their thyroid cancer was successfully treated, but recent blood tests again showed elevated parathyroid hormone levels.
My most dear, most precious, most kind, wish-fulfilling one,
Please have these practices done:
- Golden Light Sutra: You can read this sutra.
- Nangsa nangye: Text to be read once by Kopan Lama Gyupas.
- Jung shi torma: To be done twice by the Lama Gyupas at Kopan Monastery. That’s very important.
- Tashi tsegpa: Three times.
- Lu tor: To be done twice by the Lama Gyupas at Kopan Monastery.
- Shakya senge: To be done once by the Lama Gyupas at Kopan Monastery. This is the one hundred meat and one hundred torma puja. It is a Nyingma puja. You don’t need all the monks to do it; just two or three.
- Lum bum karpo: To be done three times by Tendar.
Tibetan medicine would be good, but you need to check with your doctors.
With much love and prayers ...
