This is the second year of teachings on Gampopa`s text “The Precious Garland of the Supreme Path” (or the Sublime Path), the first part was in October 1998.

Again Rinpoche emphasizes the value of this rather small and condensed text. Studying it is like meeting Gampopa himself, since all his teachings are included. Each of the 28 sections contains the whole Buddhadharma, each one is like a precious jewel, all together are like a precious garland.

This time Rinpoche teaches on section 5 – 13.

5. Ten things not to be rejected, not to be abandoned
6. Ten things to be understood, to know
7. Ten things to be practiced, to train in, to work on
8. Ten things to be emphasized, to persevere in
9. Ten things to inspire yourself, exhortations
10. Ten deviations, ways to go astray, to go the wrong way
11. Ten confusions to be identified
12. Ten unmistaken things, things not to be mistaken
13. Fourteen useless things, that are not beneficial, not good

The teachings are continued in 2000 and 2001

Each recording comprises one teaching, it ends after approx. 1h20 min, the rest is empty.

The sound quality is sometimes not that good, the prayers in the beginning sound a bit distorted.
