In the audio portion of a video address to the retreatants at the 3rd Ngöndro Retreat scheduled for the 2010-11 program season. Rinpoche expresses her delight at the success of the retreats this year and her happiness that Lotus Garden is now truly becoming the center envisioned at its founding. Rinpoche reminds the retreatants that ngöndro practice helps us discover within ourselves the whole-heartedness, honesty and confidence which leads to the possibility of holding a real result in our hands— gentle and supple minds with a sharp awareness of the power of karma and the importance of merit.
