In this teaching Geshe Sonam explains the potential of all sentient beings to achieve Enlightenment which is known as the Tathagata Garbha or Buddha Nature (Buddha Essence). Geshe la explains how due to this potentiality, all sentient beings can achieve full Enlightenment.
All Sentient Beings Possess Buddha Nature 
སེམས་ཅན་ཐམས་ཅད་ལ་སངས་རྒྱས་ཀྱི་རིགས་ཡོད་པ། 
From the Uttaratantra Shastra (Sublime Continuum) 
རྒྱུད་བླ་མ་ལས།  Because a perfect Buddha's body (enlightened qualities) are pervasive, 
།རྫོགས་སངས་སྐུ་ནི་འཕྲོ་ཕྱིར་དང་། 
Because suchness is without differentiation, 
།དེ་བཞིན་ཉིད་དབྱེར་མེད་ཕྱིར་དང་། 
And because Buddha lineage exists, 
།རིགས་ཡོད་ཕྱིར་ན་ལུས་ཅན་ཀུན། 
All embodied beings are always in possession of a Buddha essence. 
།རྟག་ཏུ་སངས་རྒྱས་སྙིང་པོ་ཅན།
