Rinpoche began by explaining how everything exists in mere name, merely labeled by the mind. Our whole life we are living in the view of ignorance and then totally trusting that everything appears real. Rinpoche explained how the delusions such as attachment and anger totally change how we view things. Rinpoche reminded us that it is so important to develop the good heart and to live life with positive mind, this is why we need to emphasize the need for contentment. When there is anger or attachment then there is need to practice contentment and patience. Rinpoche then began by introducing what thought transformation is. It means using the obstacles in the path to enlightenment, to achieve enlightenment quicker. By training the mind in thought transformation your mental continuum becomes so soft and people feel that, even without talking to you. By training your mind in this your mind becomes so happy and relaxed, not uptight. When your mind practices thought transformation, it is very relaxed and happy and you make others happy. With thought transformation then whatever happens, sickness, death, disease, it doesn’t both you, as you have a brave heart and you can use all the obstacles in the path to enlightenment.
