My dear Anthony,Thank you very much for your kind letter. I must apologize that I did not come to Kopan Monastery for the course. I will accept you as my disciple.

A student wrote asking for advice on her practice and Rinpoche sent the following response, advising daily meditation on the lamrim (the graduated path to enlightenment.)

I think it is good if you can spend more time on practice earlier in the morning, like 4 to 5 am. First, do the blessing of your speech and mala and then do the motivation. Then chant one mala of OM MANI PADME HUM.

My dear one,

A student asked Rinpoche what she should do in order to clear obstacles in her Dharma practice. Rinpoche had previously advised her to recite the Thirty-five Buddhas and Vajrasattva mantra every day.

A student wrote to Rinpoche to request specific practices that would be beneficial. He worked full-time, but his daily schedule also included Dharma study and practice. Rinpoche gave the following advice to the student on how to practice for the rest of his life.

My very dear Tenzin,I was very happy to receive your letter.

Dear Tony,

Rinpoche sent the following advice to a student regarding her daily practice.

Rinpoche sent this practice advice to a student after meeting with him.
