English excerpts from H.E.Tongkhor rinpoche this morning’s dharma class “Letter to a friend”by Acharya Nagarjuna Series (30) on Jan 11.2026
Tongkhor rinpoche sum up as follows
The urgency of a flame; the peace of the “Deathless.” 🔥✨
We just wrapped up a powerful session on Master Nagarjuna’s Letter to a Friend, diving deep into Verses 104 and 105.
Nagarjuna tells us to pursue liberation as if our clothes were on fire. But what are we running toward? Not just a “better place,” but Nirvana—a state quite distinct from the physical world of sun, moon, and elements. It is the immaculate, unageing, and inexhaustible peace.
Key takeaways from our discussion:
1. Pure Land vs. Liberation: Understanding the path and the ultimate destination.
2. Beyond Duality: On the ultimate level, the distinction between Samsara and Nirvana dissolves.
3. Compassion in the Kitchen: We even tackled the “ant problem.” If every being has been our mother or our debtor in a past life, how can we kill? We explored treating our tiny visitors as guests, repaying old karmic debts with kindness rather than chemicals.
True practice isn’t just on the cushion; it’s how we treat the “debt collectors” crawling across our floor. 🐜🙏
