In today's selection from Dilgo Khyentse's commentary we can read
the ancient Kadampa quote:

"I will hold the spear of mindfulness
at the gate of the mind,
and when the emotions threaten,
I, too, will threaten them;

when they relax their grip,
only then will I relax mine."


From the Dalai Lama's
"The Path to Enlightenment,"
lets read page 48-49 and
let's also read from the devotional text on page 198.





In today's selection the Tsong-kha-pa is quoted:

"I must remember that death is quick to strike,
for spirit quivers in flesh like a bubble in water;
and after death one's good and evil deeds
trail after one like the shadow trails the body."
