If you really need it and you get it, it's wonderful; but do not blackmail and manipulate for it.
The message here is the fact that it's time to bring Dharma home. I want everybody to make an effort. If you think of me as your Guru, spiritual guide or teacher, that's my instruction to you. If you think of me as a friend, that is my request. If you think of me as an excellent individual that has lived life and who knows a little little more, this is me on my knees begging and pleading with you. It does not matter to me how you wish to view me. But you may need to do that. You will need to lessen the mind that brings harm to yourself.

I want your sadhanas not to be another mantra or another initiation, running after another Lama. How many living Buddhas have you been sitting in front of and getting initiations from?

I am not telling you to go home and chant mantras. Do you want to be spiritual? Buy flowers for your wife and take her out for a meal. Stop nagging your husband. Don't cheat on your husbands and wives, in almost any way. You want the greatest yidam? The greatest yidam is getting behind a wheel and taking your mother or father out to eat.
