To enhance your Dharma practice, Tsoknyi Rinpoche has requested that a series of short papers based on his retreat teachings and an accompanying glossary be published on the Pundarika website. This is the first paper in that series of teachings and the first installment of the glossary. This newly revised Teachings Section also containes a library of previously published materials and chants. More invaluable short papers by Rinpoche on various teachings will be forthcoming, so please check back from time to time.
Thank you for your support with the launching of this project,
Sandra Hammond
