In this weekend teaching given at the Albagnano Healing Meditation Center, Lama Michel Rinpoche clearly explains the so-called Six Dharmas of Preparation. Before actually starting a meditation, Lam Rim (or the Graduated Path to Enlightenment) instructs us on how to prepare ourselves. These Six Dharmas of Preparation are six preparatory practices that help us purify negativities and obstacles to our spiritual practice, accumulate merit and prepare our minds for meditation.
The six preliminaries are: clean the meditation room and set up our altar, set up offerings, sit in the meditation posture, visualize the merit field and supplicate the lineage masters for their blessings.
The teachings are available also in Italian.
