Hernia Operation
Date of Advice:
Date Posted:
A student asked whether it was good to have surgery for a hernia. Rinpoche checked and advised the following.
You should wear the White Umbrella protection, plus another special protection. This protection is not only for this disease, but also to give you general protection from harm. You should always wear it on the body, however, do not put it in your trouser pocket; then it goes down and that is not good. [See the FPMT Catalogue for links to White Umbrella deity (Skt:Sitatapatra) materials.]
It doesn’t come out to do operation right now, but to delay it for one week.
You also need a puja called chagsum.
