A quote from Kyabje Khunu Lama Rinpoche's text Praise to Bodhichitta explains that like alchemically transforming iron into gold with mercury, we transform our mundane body into the holy body of a Buddha with bodhichitta. Lama Zopa Rinpoche shares several stories about attachment to the body and mentions how we spend so much money on our bodies, faces, and hair. It is so much more worthwhile to listen to, read, and meditate upon the lamrim and lojong teachings! Rinpoche then continues translation and commentary upon Nagarjuna's Praise to Satisfy Sentient Beings. The session concludes with the story of Lama Yeshe's passing, and Rinpoche gives the oral transmission of Ngulchu Dharmabhadra's text on the prostrations to the 35 Buddhas of Confession.
