This teaching was given by the late Khenpo Choewang of Gongjang Monastery, Sikkim, around the year 2010. I got this audio teaching from a friend's friend many years ago. Only recently, I started to upload them on KZread, hoping it can benefit many others like it has benefited me immensely. I rejoice in the fact that a precious text such as the Words of My Perfect Teacher, which was written in the 19th century by the most kind master, Dza Patrul Rinpoche, is available in such an easy and well-described format for all of us to listen to and put into practice. I rejoice in the fact that the late Khenpo Choewang has met and gotten teachings from many of the greatest teachers of the last century, like Dilgo Kyentse Rinpoche, Dro Drupchen Rinpoche, Chatral Rinpoche, Gongjang Rinpoche, etc. We are fortunate indeed. I have personally never met the late Khenpo Choewang, but I am immensely grateful for his wisdom and compassion. I would like to dedicate the merit accumulated by sharing this teaching for the enlightenment of all mother-sentient beings.
