Oral transmission (Tib. lung) - It is important to receive an oral transmission (sometimes called 'aural transmission' or 'reading transmission') from a teacher, in order to create an auspicious connection with a particular text or practice. In the case of tantric texts, such as sadhanas or commentaries, this transmission occurs once one has received the relevant empowerment.
