To practice these profound teachings, practitioners need to meet high requirements
It’s often mentioned that the great teachings are like snow, like milk or something so special that regular containers cannot contain – it leaks. So, to be a practitioner of these great profound teachings, we have to be a great container like [that is made of] jewel, gold or something very special quality. Otherwise, we’re not able to keep the Dharma, the instructions in the mind and it would be destroyed by negative thoughts. So, there is a high requirement for us to be a practitioner of these profound teachings.
