We will study the commentary on the difficult points of the practice and spend time reviewing these points, contemplating them, and discussing our insights into how to practice in a more effective way. We will try to experience the meaning behind the words and penetrate the essence of the practice to integrate this precious Dharma into our lives.
Reference material used will be Commentary by Geshe Tsephel, some of Lama Yeshes’s teachings on the Cittamani Tara practice, and Kirti Tsenshab’s ‘Principles of Buddhist Tantra’. |
