My most, most kind, most precious, wish-fulfilling one,
Thank you very much your kind letter. Just getting up early and doing a lot of practice is very good, but you should watch your mind. Don’t do like before. You should watch the mind if it is engaging in strange things, not just waking up early and doing practice. If your mind is engaging in strange things, let me know and maybe there are pujas you can do. Don’t just follow what you think.
Spirits can make us to think differently, so if we just follow them without thinking, [we may endanger] our most precious human life, which has unbelievable possibilities to learn Dharma, the four noble truths, and not only that, we have met the Mahayana, so we can achieve the path to enlightenment.
Not only that, we can achieve enlightenment in one life, without the need to collect merit in three countless great eons. Not only that, the fourth one is that we have met Maha-anuttara Yoga Tantra, which contains the quickest method to achieve buddhahood in a brief lifetime of degenerate time.
Because of that we are able to free the sentient beings from the oceans of samsaric suffering quickly, and because of that we are able to bring every sentient being to peerless happiness, buddhahood. That is what the human body can do. It’s incredible, incredible, incredible, so precious, so precious, so precious!
Be careful not to lose this [precious opportunity]. If we totally believe our mind when it is occupied by spirits, then we might jump from a cliff or do all kinds of things during that time. This happens when the spirits cause hallucinations or make us unconscious, but we don’t recognize that.
I checked and you need to have mamo trü kang puja done by Tsawa Khangtsen [at Sera Je Monastery in south India.] Some monks at Tsawa Khangtsen can do the puja for you, to remove obstacles so you can continue to learn and practice Dharma. This is so your life can become more beneficial for sentient beings; that is the most important thing.
Thank you very much for writing to let me know, that is very wise.
With much love and prayers
