When we talk about the knowledge "I" may gain, the learning "I" may achieve, "my" intuitive understanding, "my" deliverence from rebirth, and "my" moral way of living, our successes make these concepts seem pleasant to us, but out failures make them appear deplorable. What is the use of all that? I advise you to remain uniformly quiescent and above all activity. Do not deceive yourself with conceptual thinking, and do not look anywhere for the truth, for all that is needed is to refrain from allowing concepts to arise. It is obvious that mental concepts and external perceptions are equally misleading, and that the way of the Buddhas (author note: if conceived objectively) is as dangerous to You as the ways of demons.
Any Buddha here to shed light on this?
Or it simply stands on its own?
