Look upon the world as a bubble,
regard it as a mirage;
who thus perceives the world,
him Mara, the king of death, does not see.

I am so grateful for this thread, it has answered a lot of questions.
Jundo, that is the clearest description of what we "should" be doing that I might cry ; thankyou so much to everyone in this thread, esp. to those I've never met!
Gassho,
Geoff; a student.

Wow, another buried Treeleaf treasure, this thread! Thanks Geoff!
Jundo, a line in one of your posts above is interesting to this beginner: "the Buddha was constantly counseling against what he termed 'nihilism'." Can you elaborate on that with examples?

I wanted to add my thanks to Geoff for bringing this teaching up again. I had not read this one before.
"Practice never ends in this life!" Thank you, Jundo, for this teaching.
Gassho,
