Dear Rinpoche, I hope it’s ok here to ask a question about the medicine Buddha sadhana. I like the mantra recitation very much, find it very beneficial, and wonder if it’s ok for this to be my main daily meditation practice at least during the time of the pandemic? I have been focussing on the meaning of the mantra and the feelings this evokes, moving through the elimination of all suffering to the ocean of goodness with each repetition, not using the visualisation so much. Is this ok? Thank you dear Rinpoche, Lynda
