Continuing with our stages of the path (Lam Rim) series, Geshe Sonam Ngodup leads a meditation on recognizing and decreasing the eight worldly concerns (eight worldly dharmas). These concerns are outlined by Nāgārjuna in Letter to a Friend:
You who know the world, take gain and loss,
Happiness and unhappiness, fame and insignificance
praise and blame,
Make them the same and don't disturb your mind.

In this session, Geshe Sonam guides a meditation on the nature and potential of the mind . Although this is not traditionally part of the Lam Rim outlines, understanding a little bit about our mind and its nature is an excellent preliminary contemplation for our Lam Rim/Stages of the path practice.
Geshe la gives an introduction, leads a short visualization meditation to settle the mind, and then gives impulses for meditation on the mind's fundamental nature.

The Three Causes of Enlightenment
བདག་ཉིད་དང་ནི་འཇིག་རྟེན་འདིས།

བླ་མེད་བྱང་ཆུབ་ཐོབ་འདོད་ན།
If they wish to attain the unsurpassed enlightenment:
དེ་ཡི་རྩ་བ་བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས།
Its roots are bodhicitta, རི་དབང་རྒྱལ་པོ་ལྟར་བརྟན་དང་།
Firm like the King of Mountains,
ཕྱོགས་མཐས་གཏུགས་པའི་སྙིང་རྗེ་དང།
Compassion reaching all directions,
གཉིས་ལ་མི་བརྟེན་ཡེ་ཤེས་ལགས།
And wisdom not relying on duality.

In this teaching Geshe Sonam explains the potential of all sentient beings to achieve Enlightenment which is known as the Tathagata Garbha or Buddha Nature (Buddha Essence). Geshe la explains how due to this potentiality, all sentient beings can achieve full Enlightenment.
All Sentient Beings Possess Buddha Nature
སེམས་ཅན་ཐམས་ཅད་ལ་སངས་རྒྱས་ཀྱི་རིགས་ཡོད་པ།
From the Uttaratantra Shastra (Sublime Continuum)
རྒྱུད་བླ་མ་ལས། Because a perfect Buddha's body (enlightened qualities) are pervasive,
།རྫོགས་སངས་སྐུ་ནི་འཕྲོ་ཕྱིར་དང་།
Because suchness is without differentiation,
།དེ་བཞིན་ཉིད་དབྱེར་མེད་ཕྱིར་དང་།
And because Buddha lineage exists,
།རིགས་ཡོད་ཕྱིར་ན་ལུས་ཅན་ཀུན།
All embodied beings are always in possession of a Buddha essence.
།རྟག་ཏུ་སངས་རྒྱས་སྙིང་པོ་ཅན།
