| Thrangu Rinpoche has
often taught the transformation of our confused
mind, which is full of delusion and defilements,
into an enlightened mind. Here he describes
the confused mind in terms of the eight consciousnesses,
which are the five sensory consciousnesses,
the mental consciousness, the afflicted consciousness
(which gives us our sense of “I”
and “me”) and the alaya or storehouse
consciousness. These are described and then
Rinpoche describes how these are transformed
into the five wisdoms of the five Buddha families.
Included is a chart of the five Buddha families
listing characteristics of each including their
related skandha, klesha, chakra and colour.
