Thank you, Malcolm!
Re: Buddhahood in This Life Transmission: 09/15/17
Cool stuff. So, with 6 hours of time shift between Cambridge and most countries in Western Europe (except Portugal and the UK) this will be 23h - 03:30h at night from Friday to Saturday, I understand. Can anyone confirm?

I still haven't gotten the book, but this will push me to do so, what a great thing!

To offer care and affection to sentient beings
In desperate situations who lack protection
Brings just as much merit as the meditation
On emptiness with compassion as its core—
So it has been said by glorious Lord Atisha.
Chatral Sangye Dorje Rinpoche
If you cannot generate an altruistic mind, even extensive retreat will be of not much benefit.
