How fortunate.

[Guest guest]

"The intricate maze of philosophy of the various schools

is said to clarify matters and to reveal the Truth,

but in fact it creates confusion where none need exist.

To understand anything there must be the Self.

The Self is obvious , so why not remain as the Self ?

What need to explain the non-self ? "

" I was indeed fortunate that I never took to it

(i.e. philosophy).

Had I taken to it I would probably be nowhere ;

but my inherent tendencies led me directly to inquire

"Who am I?" .

How fortunate."
