The World as Self
The
way we define and delimit the self is arbitrary. We can place it
between our ears and have it looking out from our eyes, or we can widen
it to include the air we breathe, or at other moments we can cast its
boundaries farther to include the oxygen-giving trees and plankton, our
external lungs, and beyond them the web of life in which they are
sustained.

Genuine Discernment
The
fundamental aim of Buddhist practice is not belief; it’s enlightenment,
the awakening that takes place when illusion has been overcome. It may
sound simple, but it’s probably the most difficult thing of all to
achieve. It isn’t some kind of magical reward that someone can give you
or that a strong belief will enable you to acquire. The true path to
awakening is genuine discernment; it’s the very opposite of belief.
