Listen Later

In this episode, Geshe Sonam teaches that we overcome all the afflictive emotions by overcoming confusion. He quotes a verse from Āryadeva's Four Hundred Verses. Geshe la teaches in Tibetan and his teachings are translated by Venerable Khedrup.

From Āryadeva's Four Hundred Verses: 

ལུས་ལ་ལུས་དབང་ཇི་བཞིན་དུ། 

As tactile sense [pervades] the body 

གཏི་མུག་ཀུན་ལ་གནས་གྱུར་ཏེ། 

Confusion is present in all places 

དེ་ཕྱིར་ཉོན་མོངས་ཐམས་ཅད་ཀྱང། 

By overcoming confusion (ignorance) one also 

གཏི་མུག་བཅོམ་པས་བཅོམ་པར་འགྱུར། 

Overcomes all the afflictive emotions.
