As It Is


“Seeing it as it is, is an end as well as a means. Confused existence, or samsara, is a complex situation based on passion, aggression, and ignorance. Its essence is turmoil. But unless you relate to passion, aggression, and ignorance as the path – understanding them and working on them – you will not discover the truth. By discovering the truth of confusion, or samsara, you are also discovering peace, or nirvana – freedom from confusion. Truth is seen to be one truth without relativity.”
