Letter to a Friend May 26 Part 1 2026 GC

From Venerable Zasep Tulku Rinpoche:

“A long time ago in India, the great Buddhist philosopher Arya Nagarjuna had a friend who was a powerful king. The king ruled the country, commanded armies, and lived surrounded by luxury – but Nagarjuna could see something deeper: power does not protect the mind from fear, pride, or suffering. So instead of visiting with a gift or flattery, Nagarjuna sent a letter. Not a political letter. Not a sermon. A friend’s letter, written with care and honesty. This text became famous as “Letter to a Friend” (Suhrllekha).”

Explore clear, practical guidance for living with compassion and wisdom, rooted in the Gelug tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.
