His Holiness answers questions about whether it is proper for monks to receive teachings from women, whether students may study Tibetan language from a devotee of the controversial Shugden spirit, why mental transformation is not apparent despite faithful morning meditation practice, and what practices are recommended for devotees in addition to fervent prayers for His Holiness’ long life. His Holiness continues his commentary on Kamalashila’s text by discussing the mind of ultimate bodhicitta, its basis in the combined meditations of calm abiding and special insight, and the requisites for developing that meditation practice.

His Holiness focuses on bodhicitta generated from the seed of compassion watered by the true wisdom that counters obsessive self-cherishing. He explains the rational for generating bodhicitta by “equalizing and exchanging†narrow egoism for a mind that cherishes others and how that replaces the causes of suffering with true joy based on verses 73-89 of Nagarjuna’s text. Turning to Kamalashila’s text, His Holiness explains the methodical process for generating an aspiration for bodhicitta and strengthening that mind into the genuine/spontaneous determination, the entrance into the Bodhisattva path.
