The practice text we will use contains and presents systematically everything that is needed on the path to enlightenment, a path to fully alleviate suffering for oneself and others through the ultimate development of wisdom and compassion. According to the Vajrayana view, the brilliant inherent nature of beings, while obscured by ignorance, neurotic passion and aggression, remains wholly intact. Eliminating (purifying) these obscurations then and rediscovering our fully awakened nature, is our individual and collective goal. Vajrayana meditation provides contemplations that are comprised of highly rational self-applied examinations and remedies that alleviate suffering.
