Atisha's Lojong root verses, taken one line at a time. Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo opens with why Atisha mattered in eleventh century Tibet, where the emphasis had gone to powers and he brought it back to refuge and bodhicitta, then reads the text aloud as an oral transmission.

Taming the monkey mind, observing the mind at all times, and living in disharmony with the world.

Sangha and community Bodhicitta practice Lojong (mind training)
