"Lama Zopa Rinpoche comments on the text "" Eight Verses of Thought Transformation"" composed by Geshe Langri Tangpa. The main point here is to develop a good heart. For this it is not even necessary to believe in karma or reincarnation. You practice this by praying that you can take the suffering of others upon you, especially at times when specific sufferings befall you, like sicknesses or relationship problems. In this way you destroy the sefl cherishing thought in your heart, which is the great demon that caused your suffering since beginningless time. It is this great enemy that blocks you from getting enlightened and benefit others. Then the ignorance holding the I truly existing becomes empty and you utilize all your obstacles on the path to enlightenment.
