Starting Chemotherapy
Date Posted:
Rinpoche checked and gave the following advice to a student who was about to have chemotherapy for cancer.
It looks very good to have the operation now.
- Read Amitayas long-life sutra (Tibetan: tse-dö) 70 times before the operation; others can help with this. The sutra is available for download from FPMT as a pdf file.
- Do the Four Mandala Offerings to Tara puja once before the operation. Request Nalanda Monastery to do this puja for the success of the operation, for a long life and for successful lamrim practice.
