Conduct to be avoided when listening to the teachings includes the six stains (Tib. དྲི་མ་དྲུག་) :


The six stains are mentioned in Vasubandhu’s Well-Explained Reasoning:


Arrogance, lack of faith,

Lack of any interest,

Outward distraction, inward tension,

And discouragement are the six stains. .[1].

Tibetan

རྣམ་བཤད་རིག་པ་ལས།

ང་རྒྱལ་དང་ནི་མ་དད་དང་།

།དོན་དུ་གཉེར་བ་མེད་ཉིད་དང་།

།ཕྱི་རོལ་རྣམ་གཡེངས་ནང་དུ་སྡུད།

།སྐྱོ་བས་ཉན་པ་དྲི་མ་ཡིན།།
