There are methods to study correctly. They involve concentration in three areas: my mind, my eyes, and my mouth. To believe in what I read is equally important. When I begin to read a book, I will not think about another. If I have not completed the book, I will not start another. I will give myself lots of time to study, and I will study hard. If I devote enough time nand effort,27 I will thoroughly understand. If I have a question, I will make a note of it. I will ask the person who has the knowledge for the right answer.
27 If I do not understand part of a book I am reading, I should read it again and again, even if for a thousand times. Its meaning will come to me in time.
