Student Having Difficulties

Date Posted:

Rinpoche sent the following letter to a student who was upset and having some difficulties.

My very dear one,
Please don’t worry. I received and read your long letter of explanation that you sent to His Holiness the Dalai Lama. I do not remember some of the things that you mentioned in your letter. I can’t remember them happening. I am sorry about that. My memory is not perfect, but I should remember these things. I do remember the part (vaguely) of you coming to Nepal and about the Rinpoche.

If you have received that initiation from the Rinpoche you mentioned, you are very fortunate, as he is a great practitioner of this deity.

Regarding curing the sickness you mentioned, from the patient's side, you have to have the karma, either karma created in the past, or you can create karma now and get better (this is good karma, as the result is happiness). You can create the karma to be cured. Some people have recovered from naga harm from having a puja performed. Nagas can have different forms, like that of an animal.

There are other numberless beings in forms we don’t see, like buddhas, bodhisattvas, and other types of beings. They exist, but we can’t see them.

I am happy you have Lama Yeshe in your heart and are still devoted. He is your root guru and the one you received your happiness from, up to enlightenment.

Please don’t worry. I am coming to your country, and then we can definitely meet.

With much love and prayer...
