**Release reliance - Human shape treasure** Human shape treasure is of importance in the way of release. The sutra thinks that it's hard and rare to obtain human form treasure. Buddhism fully expounds the truth that human shape is hard to obtain and it is precious from the perspective of the six way of rebirth, and proves that only human beings have subjective and objective conditions to practice Buddhism and get rid of worries and pains.
