I know you would say, it wouldn't matter to you then, if they were different. But neither would it matter to you if they are the same! No Advaita or Mahayana would exist then. They will all then be false. **** WELL SAID! the description of a Zen Mind... (SATORI) ... Before a person studies Zen, mountains are mountains and waters are waters; after a first glimpse into the truth of Zen, mountains are no longer mountains and waters are not waters; after enlightenment, mountains are once again mountains and waters once again waters. In other words, words are words ! language is just language.! your experience is only your experience . Scriptures are scriptures . so on and so forth... WELL, FOLKS ... my favorite take on this is ... "Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it."

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 Dear all, And my favourite take is: "Beleive no one blindly. You may surely think about it. Have faith in your own Bodhi alone however little it may be. Do not tell anybody, what your bodhi says." Satyameva Jayate Naanrtam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
