A student felt very tired and negative, and had been thinking about death for about two years. The student’s life had become increasingly difficult as a result of a relationship breakdown, financial problems and unstable employment.

My most dear, most kind, precious wish-fulfilling one,
I am very sorry for the long delay in replying to your email. I checked and this is what you need:

  • Three Padmasambhava incense pujas and a Heruka Body Mandala incense puja. [Rinpoche did these for you this afternoon here at Kopan.]
  • Request the geshe to do a Yamantaka increasing fire puja.
  • Wear a Hayagriva protection and a Ten Wrathful Deities protection (this one is most important).
  • Recite Vajra Armor. It’s most important that you recite this.

This is my advice at this time. Please make your life most meaningful with the thought of bodhicitta day and night, and in every action you do.

With much love and prayers...
