Erroneous View Concerning the Five Great Pills: Erroneous View #30

Most Precious Nectar
Most Precious Nectar

There are five great pills: the vajra pill, the great treasure pill, the supreme treasure pill, the nectar pill, and the long life pill. It is a very good thing to have one of these pills, but they are not what enables you to become accomplished. You must still rely on your own actual cultivation.

Erroneous View #30:  Acknowledging that by possessing the five great pills, such as the vajra pill, one can attain accomplishment
Those with this view think they can become accomplished once they have a vajra pill, great treasure pill, supreme treasure pill, nectar pill, and/or long life pill. Possessing these pills is a good thing but has nothing to do with attaining accomplishment. One must rely upon one’s own actual cultivation to become accomplished.
