Ven Geshe Damcho-la has very kindly agreed to give the above Masterclasses, teaching Nagarjuna’s Letter to a Friend. By examining the Four Noble Truths and the Six Perfections, Nagarjuna describes logically and poetically the internal patterns of experience which leads a person to buddhahood.

Nagarjuna wrote this letter to his friend the Satavahana King Gautamiputra Yajnasn (166-196AD.) on how to integrate spiritual values into his busy daily life. Nagarjuna’s advice is still of special interest to those who wish to cultivate a religious practice while continuing to live and work in a society.

Nagarjuna lived in India 2,000 years ago. And he flourished in the second half of the second century of the Christian era. He went to Nalanda University and became a disciple of the great sage Rahula Shadra and underwent a thorough training in all five branches of learning. Nagarjuna’s six works on Madhyamika philosophy are well known to the Buddhist world.
