Rinpoche began by explaining the meaning of Guru: Guru means being heavy in qualities, whose holy mind has totally ceased not only gross defilements but even subtle defilements and completed all the realizations, the dharmakaya, the transcendental wisdom of all the buddhas. That is the guru, your kind guru, the nature of all the buddhas. From my heart, I request to please guide me in this life, the intermediate state and the next life. So that is the ultimate nature of the guru and the meaning of ‘puja’ is pleasing the guru. By pleasing the guru you purify all your heavy negative karmas, that have been collected in the past from beginningless lives. Rinpoche explained that this is something to always keep in your heart. Keep these benefits in your heart and the best offering is what pleases the guru. Rinpoche said that so many holy beings actualized the Lama Chopa and that this teaching has not degenerated, it is still warm with blessing.
