Good job!
So now on to mandala offering, Vajrasattva and Guru Yoga (and maybe more).

This too will end
Let me know if you need to chat about this, I found that speaking to people when you hit the wall helps a lot.
Best wishes

Thanks a lot

At the moment it's going quite smoothly - but at the current rate I will only finish prostrations and vajrasattva (was told that I can do them together) by end 2012... but that's ok....
all the best

Doing them together? I never thought of that.
I am now starting the Vajrasattva / Dorje Sempa part of the practice, and I would also aim to be finished with that towards the end of next year. Or not

I'm travelling quite a lot for my job so I'm actually not always able to do prostrations so that's probably one of the reasons why my teacher said I could do them together.... keeps the momentum going...
Enjoy the vajrasattva practice - it's a wonderful one
