Trijang Rinpoche
(1901-1981)
“How to listen [to Dharma teachings]:
Relying on the six discriminations:
- Contemplating the discrimination of oneself as a patient
- Contemplating the discrimination of the one expounding the Dharma as a doctor
- Generating the discrimination of the instructions as medicine
- Generating the discrimination of persistent practice as the cure
- Contemplating the discrimination of the Tathagatas as exalted beings
- Generating the wish for the Dharma tradition to last long”
