Today Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso gave a commentary to the entire path of Vajrayogini.
With this simple yet profound practice we are able to create a beautiful and pure existence through training our mind.
Geshe-la explained that the main body of Varayogini practice is training in Clear Light of Bliss. The limbs of the practice are called the eleven yogas. In this context, yoga means training in spiritual paths, not physical exercise.
Geshe-la said we will be able to realise our very subtle mind by practising the first of the eleven yogas, the Yoga of Sleeping and training in central channel or tummo meditation. Geshe-la then shared with us the essential instructions for all eleven yogas so that we are equipped to create a pure mind and thereby experience a pure world.
Geshe-la emphasised the kindness of previous Lamas in preparing these instructions and revealed that he will never forget their kindness.
Venerable Geshe-la we will never forget your kindness.
