Teachings on 'Nectar of Manjushri's Speech' (MP3), an Overview
Return to the Shedra MP3 Library.
The pages below contain the MP3 recording of teachings of Khenpo Sönam Tobden on Khenpo Kunpal's commentary The Nectar of Manjushri's Speech on the Bodhicharyavatara.
The recordings were made during Rigpa Shedra East 2006/2007 in Pharping / Nepal. Khenpo teaches in Tibetan. The recordings contain English translation by Gyurmé.
The teaching MP3s will be made successively available as the teaching progresses:
Oh sublime and precious bodhichitta,
May it arise in those in whom it has not arisen;
May it never decline where it has arisen
But go on increasing, further and further!
