Descriptionངོ་སྤྲོད།

Venerable Thubten Semkye describes some advice given by Geshe Dorje Damdul about how to practice bodhicitta in daily life. She talks about overcoming anger by recognizing that we have created the causes for what happens to us, by seeing other beings as kind, and by doing the best we can to accept requests for help.
