What If There Was No Enlightenment Or Reincarnation?
If there was no enlightenment or reincarnation, would it make any difference to the Buddha’s teaching? No. The reality that pure awareness is present in an ever-changing world of deception still holds true. Reality is happiness itself, without any struggling with semantics. Life is fulfilling when we no longer see two.
Painting a window frame is being one with the brush, paint, wood – no drips or splashes, while knowing the wood is protected. What is more satisfying than that? Oh yes, being at one with another person. 🙂
The problem in the world is that people want to be two – divided, and thus, unhappy.
