"Rinpoche starts by making a very brief but complete explanation on the whole process to enlightenment. He starts explaining the foundation of the common path and then goes on with the uncommon path. He makes that only to focus on the foundation, the very basis to really actualize that path. Without the foundation, even if we train in the highest of the high tantra practices, we won’t achieve anything. Rinpoche illustrates that by using different texts. For example, he uses a quotation on Guru devotion from the Guhyasamaja Root Tantra, another from Tantra of the Ornament of the Heart Vajra and finally another one on Guru Devotion by Sakya Pandita. There is also an exhaustive explanation on the heaviness of the negative karma resulting from breaking the samaya regarding to the guru or belittling the guru.
