Dharma that Every Buddhist Must Follow, the text used for this course, is a collection of discourses given by Dorje Amang Nopu PaMu.

If you wish to take this class, you should acquire the book and enroll to be able to see the homework questions. I am anticipating following the same format we used with P10-The Great Dharma of Zen Practice where the homework questions will be assigned to the students enrolled in the class who will then present their understanding of the question and then lead the discussion on that question.
You can purchase the text book directly from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Cultural and Art Museum (170 E. School St. Covina CA 91723) or pay by credit card, or PayPal.

CLICK for my summary of the Buddha Master’s “It Will Be Fruitless If One Does Not Listen to Discourses in Accordance with the Dharma Expounded in this Discourse.” Better yet, listen to it in Chinese. Sorry, I do not believe there is any authorized translations of this discourse yet. This summary is also included in both D01 and D01(A). One of the instructions in this discourse was to study Dorje PaMu’s Dharma That Every Buddhist Must Follow.
