I need to use my own template with my own Docker container, but it keeps downloading everything ever

I created a template with a new Docker container because it has an update for Python, PyTorch, CUDA, CUDNN, and Ubuntu.

It works perfectly, but every time I open a new pod, it downloads everything again, and I have 1 TB of storage.

What should I do to make it permanent and prevent it from downloading everything from scratch every time I open a new pod?
