If we were to discover an ancient scripture buried beneath the ground and upon opening it found that it contained instructions on how to become enlightened, we would never be able to attain enlightenment simply by reading the book without receiving teachings on the subject. We would have no means of clarifying doubts or clearing up misunderstandings, and, without the blessings of a lineage, we would find it impossible to take the instructions to heart. For us those instructions would be like a locked treasure chest. ~ Great Treasury of Merit, Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
