Practices for Nasal Cancer

My dear one,
It comes out very good to have both chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but prior to having this done, it’s important to start doing the following practices immediately.

Do each of these practices every day:

• Black Manjrushri - five malas a day
• Most Secret Hayagriva - one mala a day
• Read the Golden Light Sutra every day – at least a few pages
• Read the Diamond Cutter Sutra – at least a few pages

Doing these practices creates unbelievable merit for future lives, as well as for the benefit of this life. The future lives are more important than this life, so think about this, because even without cancer, we can die at any time. Even if we are young there are still many things that can cause sudden death, even for children. So it’s much more important to think about our future lives. These practices are incredibly beneficial for future lives and ultimately for enlightenment.

The immediate benefit is for the cancer, but the main benefit is for your long-term future and ultimately, for achieving enlightenment for sentient beings. This is the most important thing. It’s very important when you do these practices to motivate in this way, to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all sentient beings.

I don’t mean that you shouldn’t try to prevent the cancer; what I am saying is how important it is for all your future lives to do these practices, compared to this one small situation of cancer in this life.

Also if you can do some tong-len, that is very good.

With much love and prayers...
