The Dalai Lama said his knowledge of absolute reality helps him stay calm in life
The real is unknown. The known is unreal.
In order to know it is necessary to recognize the fact that you do not know.
Not because you do not know, but because in reality there is actually nothing to be known.
All you can ever know is knowledge, thoughts, concepts, ideas and beliefs. But the real world contains none of these. So you can not possibly “know” reality. It is meaningless.
Only in this empty place of non-knowing is there any possibility of listening really to yourself and to others without prejudice.
In this place wisdom and compassion arise spontaneously. This is intelligent love.
Keep well,
Jonathan
