Geshe la teaches in Tibetan and his teachings are translated by Venerable Khedrup. Enjoy the teachings!   

བསོད་ནམས་རྣམ་སྨིན་བདེ་་སྟེར་སྡུག་བསྔལ་ཐམས་ཅད་སེལ།  

The ripening of merit brings happiness and clears all suffering.  

བསོད་ནམས་ལྡན་པའི་མི་ཡིས་བསམ་པ་སྣམས་ཀྱང་འགྲུབ།  

A person endowed with merit has their wishes accomplished,  

བདུད་བཅོམ་ནས་ནི་བྱང་ཆུབ་མྱུར་དུ་རེག་པ་འགྱུར།  

By defeating the maras they quickly touch enlightenment  

མྱང་ལས་འདས་ཞི་བ་བསིལ་བའི་དངོས་པོ་ཐོབ།  

And quickly achieve the cooling essence of nirvana.
