The Liberation Stories of the Kagyu Masters – Day 7

We can divide the dharma into the different vehicles, or into the three turnings of the wheels of dharma, or we can look at in terms of the different capacities of individuals.
But it’s not about what we study or practice on an outer level, it’s about us, ourselves, our understanding and how we see things. Many of us see the study of the dharma as being the same as studying something like computers for example, where we feel that if we learn about computers it is computers that we will come to know, that is the result we will get.
So we choose a level of dharma to study and practise and assume we will attain the corresponding results that are taught to be gained from that level of teaching. But it doesn’t work like that. We need to know our level and then engage with a level of dharma that corresponds to that. That is the way we make the quickest progress.
