Most of us suffer from the mental disorder of believing that we are the body mind and that we are born. I would even say that most of the 7 billion folks on this planet adhere to this belief.
Given this disorder, it is not surprising that our actions reflect this belief that we are the images, the thoughts and feelings that we imagine.
The wise speak and act in ways that point to the Dharma and help others to awaken from the illusion.
Taking a close look at our own beliefs and actions, contemplating and reflecting upon the scriptures, living Dharmically is the way.
