there is no wind. The idea of a specific self is a mistake. Existence is clarity and emptiness.
-Visuddhi Magga
• We should surrender our intention to selfishly seek merit and recognition for our merit, and instead simply plant merit and cultivate wisdom.
• Inwardly be free of all hopes and desires, but outwardly do what needs to be done. Without hopes in your heart, live as if you were full of hopes. Live with your heart now cool and now warm, just like everyone else. Inwardly give up the idea "I am the doer," yet outwardly engage in all activities. This is how to live in the world, completely free from the least trace of ego.
-Maha Ramayana
• Empty and calm and devoid of self Is the nature of all things.
No individual being
In reality exists.
There is no end or beginning, Nor any middle course.
All is an illusion,
As in a vision or a dream.
All beings in the world
Are beyond the realm of words. Their ultimate nature, pure and true, Is like the infinity of space.
-Prajnaparamita
• Domestic life is rightly called virtue. The monastic path, rightly lived beyond blame, is likewise
good.
