Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro
What is the definition of a “beginner” in Dharma practice? For instance, if we took some poison and through the power of our practice, we do not experience any effects at all from that poison. That means you are not a beginner in Dharma practice. However, if you experienced diarrhoea, vomiting and various symptoms from the poison, then you are a beginner. Don’t think that just because you have studied the Dharma for three years or something, you are already not a beginner. (Khenpo laughs). Everyone here is a beginner.
