Attention: Regardless of their sect or school, all Buddhists who practice, recite, or enter inner visualization of any Buddha Dharma—Dharmas in Exoteric Buddhism or Esoteric Buddhism, chanting the holy names of Buddhas, meditation, śamatha-vipaśyanā, and so forth—must abide by these “Definitive Tenets Imparted by Buddha” at all times. If you violate these Tenets, you will not actualize any beneficial effects or attain any accomplishment from whatever Buddha Dharmas you practice! This is of critical importance! This is of utmost importance!
