A student taking medication for schizophrenia asked Rinpoche for advice on practices and mantras to help with the medicine's side effects, which included tremors, stiffness, a heavy head and vivid dreams.
My very one,
I checked regarding your symptoms, and it came out for you to have these pujas done:
- Gyab shi puja: To be done by Ven. Samten and Ven. Steve at Land of Medicine Buddha in California.
- White Umbrella Deity puja: To be recited by the Lama Gyupas at Kopan Monastery.
You need to recite these mantras:
- Vajra Armor: Recite three malas a day. You only need to do the mantra, not the whole practice. Look at a picture of the deity and recite the mantra.
- Most Secret Hayagriva: Recite this mantra each day. Look at a picture of the deity and recite the mantra.
You need to wear a protection (ten wrathful deities) so I will send this to you.
If you feel better after these pujas and mantras are done, then maybe you can check the medicines or the amount you are taking could be changed, but only if you notice some difference after the pujas and mantras.
With much love and prayers ...
