Parasites
Date Posted:
Rinpoche gave the following advice on what to do if you have parasites and have to take medication to kill them.
Lama Yeshe used to say: Take the medicine, but take it, as much as possible, with compassion, a motivation of strong compassion, as strong as you can.
You can, of course, dedicate your practices to the little beings. Also, you can add Medicine Buddha puja, the King of Prayers, and the Heart Sutra, also any of the eight prayers. Make dedications for the little sentient beings.
