Note

Klong chen pa discusses inspection (dran pa), sustained alertness (shes bzhin) and conscientiousness (bag yod) as the three "most important disciplines for protecting one's mind from the throng of emotions," thereby preventing one from failing in the bodhicitta. The author then discusses [601 f.] the theme of being vigilant throughout one's everyday activities and includes a relevant quote on 613.
