cultivate pure perception

You must tame your own shortcomings and cultivate impartial pure perception, for a biased attitude will not let you shoulder the Mahayana teachings. Since all the sentient beings among the six classes in the three realms have without exception been your own parents, unless you make pure aspirations with ceaseless compassion and bodhicitta, you cannot open the jewel mine of altruistic actions. Unless you generate a devotion toward your kind guru exceeding even that of meeting the Buddha in person, you will not feel the warmth of blessings. Unless you genuinely receive the blessings, the seedlings of experience and realization will not sprout. Unless realization dawns from within, dry explanations and theories will not help you achieve the fruit of enlightenment. ~ Longchenpa

你必須調伏自己的過失，培養不偏清淨的覺知，因為有偏見的態度不會讓你荷擔起大乘的教法。由於三界六道的一切有情眾生無一不曾是自己的父母，除非你以無盡的慈悲與菩提心發清淨誓願，否則你不能開啟利他行之寶礦。除非你對慈祥上師的虔誠心甚至大過於親自面見佛陀，否則你不會感受到加持的溫暖。除非你真正得到加持，否則經驗和証悟的幼苗不會發芽。除非証悟從內在生起，否則枯燥乏味的解釋和理論不會讓你現証覺悟的果實。
