Daily Dharma 23 september,2017

No sutra, tantra, or shastra speaks of any being ever attaining perfect Buddhahood without having a spiritual teacher. We can see for ourselves that nobody has ever developed all the accomplishments of the stages and paths by relying on their own efforts and abilities alone. All beings, ourselves included, are very inventive in taking wrong directions. But when it comes to following the path of liberation and omniscience, we are as confused as a blind person wandering alone in the middle of a deserted plain. No-one can bring back jewels from a treasure island without relying on an experienced navigator. Likewise, a spiritual friend is our true guide to liberation and omniscience, and we must follow him with respect. This is accomplished in three phases: firstly, by examining the teacher, then by following him and finally by emulating his realization and his actions. PATRUL RINPOCHE "The Words of My Perfect Teacher"

 "Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible"   H.H Dalai Lama
