[HuangBo] No Groveling Is Necessary


Q: Does the Buddha really liberate sentient beings?


A: There are in reality no sentient beings to be delivered by the Tathāgata.

If even self has no objective existence, how much less has other-than-self!

Thus, neither Buddha nor sentient beings exist objectively.


 

A deceptively subtle statement.

For the innocent, it is liberation.

For WannaBeGurus it is a painful stab at all they hold dear.

"Back straight! Eyes forward! Breath in! Yes! Yes! I can feel my--er, uh, YOUR--power growing!"

Bwahahahaha

Keep praying, the rest of us will be playing.
