There are 3 marks that prove whether something is an authentic Buddhist teaching. If you are not sure that a teaching you have received is authentic, you should refer to these marks. They are called the 3 Dharma Seals 三法印 :

1) Impermanence 诸行无常

2) No Self 诸法无我

3) Nirvana 涅槃寂靜

I shall post an article on each of them later.
