The Path to Auspiciousness is a pre-recorded course exploring the famous chant by Jamgön Mipham Gyatso (1846-1912), The Verses of the Eight Auspicious Noble Ones. This short liturgy, recommended for daily practice by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, is a method to help establish positive circumstances through relying on all the buddhas and bodhisattvas—particularly those associated with auspiciousness—to pacify obstacles and increase the beneficial outcomes of whatever we do. The chant can be done at the start of the day, and before beginning any spiritual or secular project or activity. The course includes remarks on how to approach a new chant, the nature of auspiciousness, feminine principle, and the symbolism and deities in the chant.
