The Four Thoughts of the Instruction Lineage include, but are not identical to, the Four Reminders in the Kagyu Ngondro liturgy. Ponlop Rinpoche presents an extensive explanation of these Four Thoughts: (1) the thought that turns the mind to dharma (includes precious human birth and impermanence), (2) the thought that turns the mind away from samsara (includes karma and the sufferings of samsara), (3) the thought that turns the mind away from temporary peace, and (4) the thought that turns the mind away from duality. These thoughts are explained from a Mahayana perspective. Extremely useful for Ngondro practitioners. Taught in English. Five talks. This teaching is also available on MP3 CD.
