Live the Tao

ombuddha:

The Four Reliances:

First, rely on the spirit and meaning of the teachings, 
not on the words; 

Second, rely on the teachings, 
not on the personality of the teacher; 

Third, rely on real wisdom, 
not superficial interpretation; 

And fourth, rely on the essence of your pure Wisdom Mind, 
not on judgmental perceptions.
