Having received empowerments and instructions from various masters, we may like to keep count and list our credentials. But just to think "I have received such and such," just to have the superficial confidence of having obtained a transmission, does not, by itself bring liberation. The only reason for receiving teachings is to liberate our being. The ripening empowerments and liberating oral instructions should free our state of mind in the sense that disturbing emotions should diminish and the qualities of wisdom should increase. Take that as your infallible guideline. Our disturbing emotions do not diminish by collecting notes of the different titles of teachings and the empowerments that we received, while neglecting to put these instructions and transmissions into practice.
