The True Reality of the World, is…
“However, the World of Pure Land, the world of Joy and Infinite Development, is the True Reality of the World.
It expresses symbolically in the heart state of reincarnation. There is a quote in Buddhism that says “the state of the heart, the body and the circumstances, these three are one”. That is why this world that is on its way to get old and die symbolizes and expresses as I said, “there is only one or the other”, Infinite Development at every moment or just going down.
I know it is not easy to have the view of Infinite Development, because in the human world everything is duality so Development means going from an undeveloped to a developed situation, from unhappy to happy, these are the developments in the human world.
However Infinite Development is not the duality state of the heart, the rich becomes richer and richer and richer, every moment increasing, and this is the true reality.
What we understand as common sense is tied to and based on duality. It is like an illusion, people looking at the illusion and sharing this illusion as common sense...”
