During the main program at Kagyu Thubten Choling, Wappingers Falls, July 1996, Rinpoche offered a public talk on meditation on mind's nature, taught the Six Kinds of Monasteries and opened up for questions.

Visiting Birmingham, 1996, Rinpoche chooses to teach 10 songs: Nine by the lord Gotsangpa and one by Jetsun Milarepa.

He encourages the students present to publish a booklet based on these teachings, which is also why they are presented here as one course.

The songs are: 

  1. A little Melody on Eight Kinds of Delight   སྐྱིད་པ་བརྒྱད།   
  2. Eight Attainments Come to Light   མངོན་གྱུར་བརྒྱད།
  3. Seven Delights   བྲོདཔ་བདུན།   
  4. Seven Reasons to Perfect your Practice   སྒྲུབ་པ་མཐར་དོན་བདུན།   
  5. Six Kinds of Monasteries   དགོན་པ་དྲུག   
  6. Eight Flashing Lances   མདུན་བསྐོར་བརྒྱད།   
  7. Eight Cases of Basic Goodness not to be Shunned   མ་སྤངས་གནད་དག་བརྒྱད།   
  8. Eight Bliss Fortress   བདེ་བསྐྱེད་རྫོང་བརྒྱད།   
  9. The Seven Yogas   རྣལ་འབྱོར་བདུན།   
  10. Four Supreme Things and Eleven Supreme Things   མཆོག་བཞི་དང་མཆོག་གྱུར་བཅུ་གཅིག
