“What is the bodhisatva’s skilled approach to the accumulation of knowledge? Knowledge comes about on the basis of a particular cause, and there are different causes and conditions through which knowledge is attained. What are these causes? What are these conditions? They are to have a strong desire to search for the Dharma; to follow a friend who has attained knowledge; to rely on the knowledge of buddhas and not to rely on the knowledge of śrāvakas or pratyekabuddhas; to not to entertain any pride with respect to these things; and to have affection for one’s guru, to have affection for one’s teacher.
