The five personal advantages (Wyl. rang 'byor lnga), half of the ten advantages of a precious human birth, are:

  1. 生而為人 being a human being
  2. 生於中土 born in a central land
  3. 諸根具足 with faculties intact
  4. 業未顛倒 lifestyle not harmful or wrong
  5. 信奉三藏 with faith in the three pitakas

Commentary

Chökyi Drakpa says:

Being born as a human being means that you have a proper physical support for practising the Dharma. Having all five faculties intact means you can study the teachings and contemplate them. In a central land means to be born in a place where the teachings are available. A lifestyle that is not harmful or wrong means that your body, speech and mind are in harmony with the Dharma. Having faith in Buddha’s teachings means recognizing that they provide a special path leading to freedom from samsara, and a state which surpasses the situation of the worldly gods. When you possess these five endowments, 'the five personal advantages' are said to be complete.
