Opening the door of faith and devotion ~ 17th Karmapa

The student needs to have faith and longing, and if this faith and longing come together then I don’t think that sort of a student will have any difficulty finding a genuine, authentic Lama. The reason is that all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are ready at all six times of day and night to do things to benefit sentient beings. They’re all ready and waiting. If you have both faith and longing then they’ll all come rushing towards you to help you. You just have to open that door of faith and devotion.
