Date Posted:

Rinpoche gave the following advice to a student with life obstacles.

There seem to be some life obstacles for you this year, and there are some things you should do:

  1. Liberate 115 animals, with practice according to how Rinpoche does animal liberations. The animals can be worms, etc.
  2. Recite 200,000 Vajrasattva mantras. Do one or two sessions a day, and then do retreat for a week or a month etc., sometime. Between doing that, you can also count the mantras more casually, for example, when walking, etc. In this way, try to finish 200,000 mantras.
  3. Recite the Sutra of Liberation 40 times.
