Rinpoche started by explaining importance of going for refuge and the meaning of three sublime rare ones. Then Rinpoche explained the meaning of “like a dream” and how to do walking meditation he led in Washington, on looking at hallucination as it is a hallucination. Rinpoche then explained the importance of understanding where suffering comes from and how to stop and explained the 4 noble truths. Rinpoche then explained the essence of thought transformation - it is only bodhichitta that can eliminate the suffering of all sentient beings who have been your mother. The importance to do every action with bodhichitta. Then whatever you do it eliminates each sentient beings suffering, it causes numberless sentient beings to achieve happiness. How to look at bad conditions as the virtuous friend. All obstacles are persuading you to practice virtue. All the sufferings are a broom cleaning away suffering. By experiencing this present problem or suffering, it finishes past negative karma, and then there will be happiness, like the sun shining in the world and you go to enlightenment. What every suffering happens – don’t look at it as mistake, be happy, rejoice in the suffering by thinking the benefits. Rinpoche then explained how to understand the extensive kindness of sentient beings and how the numberless Buddha, Dharma, Sangha came from this person who abuses you or who doesn’t love you.
