Way of Sattva

Post by garudha »

When there is grasping; there seems to be a self.
When grasping is not; a self there is not.
The path is the way and the fruit is ignorance.
Without ignorance there cannot be complete liberation.
The true dharma can only be apprehended by the ignorant;
yet the ignorant do not know the true dharma.
The Buddhas cannot apprehend suffering, and,
the suffering cannot apprehend the the Buddhas.
The dharma is Buddha-nature.

The pane of clear glass has two sides;
nirvana and samsara;
Compassion & wisdom.
Yet each side depends on the other.
This paradox gives rise to many ideas.
Dependency is key.
The paradox is by virtue of itself.
The ultimate mystery of love.
