~ For those with Highest Yoga Tantra empowerments only ~

“We should know that in truth our commitments of the Pratimoksha, Bodhisattva and Tantric vows are the only method to solve our own and others’ problems and the only method to make ourself and others happy. This is what we really need.

We should never think that our commitments are like heavy luggage but always think that they are a wish-fulfilling jewel that has been given to us by Buddha, and we should keep them purely at the cost of our life.”

Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, A Handbook for the Daily Practice of Bodhisattva and Tantric Vows
