Keeping it in perspective

[Bubbles]

An advice given to Menyag Kondrag from Padampa:

 

"If you have a heartfelt desire to practice Dharma, your better refuge is taking a Lama.

The chief object of virtuous practice is benefitting others. The chief object of the

precepts is arousing certainty. The chief object of learning and reflection is to tame

your own mind. The chief object of realization is to dissolve reifications. In so far as

these things are grasped upon for other reasons, they become causes for falling further

into the vicious circles of samsara."

 

I just felt these words deeply when i came across your expression of devotion for your teacher.

 

Thank you for that.
