| English | Now it could be argued that if all phenomena are unreal and illusory, like mirages, why should one train on the path, practicing generosity and so on—like tiring oneself trying to buy an illusory horse? The answer is that it is for the end result or rather out of necessity that one simply enters the path without subjecting it to analysis and investigation. But what is this necessity? The fact is that the appearances of samsara and nirvana, illusion-like as they are, are inescapable owing to the power of interdependent origination. And until dualistic, subject–object fixation is dissipated in the expanse of suchness, these same appearances will continue to affect living beings without interruption, helping or harming them as the case may be. It is as a means to remove the suffering of ourselves and others, and in order to find benefit and happiness, that we persevere—not because we believe in the real existence of the path and its result. It is like emanating a phantom army in order to deliver people from their [phantom] enemies, or like trying to wake someone who is suffering in a nightmare. |
