Does any one have the Tibetan verses for the Guru Yoga with White A they would be willing to send me?

When you do ganapuja by yourself do you need to prepare a seperate plate for three roots or do we just first offer our plate? DS Doing ganapuja completely alone is no good. If done with webcast then you ofc prepare separate plate for three roots also a glass. But alone it is better to do medium thu...

where is the screen shot from? It is the Padma Karpo Translation Committee's Online Dictionary, the Illuminator Tibetan-English Encyclopaedic Dictionary . It is a very valuable resource to me, I think it is well worth the expense. There are native desktop app versions as well, but I prefer the web ...

Footnote 580 in chapter 40 (The Praise) says that, “The innumerable sentient beings of the six realms of samsara are innate seeds within one’s heart center.” Hmm, that is very interesting. I would like to understand this better. Is this literal or figurative or something else all together? Nice tea...

Fact...Five years ago 40% of the staff at our local hospital avoided the flu shot and at times that winter staffing levels were at a dangerous level due to staff sickness that was flu related.

རང་བཞིན་ rang bzhin. Literally own face? Does the bzhin here mean face or something else?

I find this a tough one because it is translated as inherent existence and also as the natural state. Is this the same inherent existence the Gelugs very much enjoy smashing to pieces?
