"Whenever we listen to teachings on Dharma, and we need to know what is required of both teachers and listeners.
The first thing in learning how to listen to Dharma, is to reflect upon the benefits of doing so.
We need to reflect upon the fact that having this precious human body for as long as we have it - until we are struck by the mara of death - we have this opportunity to listen to and reflect upon wondrous Dharma, which is a certain cause of unsurpassable awakening."
