When a good teacher teaches us the Buddha’s view, meditation and action, the teacher’s mouth is like a magnifying glass. In his heart, the luminosity of the Buddha is already there, it shines out through the magnifying glass of their mouth, and it directly comes into our mind. The luminosity is making the fire in our heart, the fire of wisdom, which burns all the garbage of the disturbing emotions, the negative behaviour and all the negative patterns.
