The proper dharmas are: not fighting, not being greedy, not seeking, not being selfish, not wanting personal advantages, and not telling lies. These are known as the Six Great Guidelines. No matter what dharma it is, you may use the Six Guidelines as a yardstick to measure, judge, and contemplate it. If it accords with the six rules, it can be called a proper dharma. If it goes against them, it is a deviant dharma.
I chose this quote because proper knowledge and proper view are very important for us to learn proper dharma, otherwise we just waste our energy and time, and put our effort in vain, but create a lot of bad karma. We must have proper dharma-selecting eye to be able to recognize proper dharmas and evil dharmas.
