A. Within the temporal world, after we see a factor, we outline it with phrases, imaginary labels. For instance, after we see a flower, we outline it with phrases reminiscent of flower, rose, crimson, lovely and so forth and mark its id.
Once we encounter an analogous factor later, we, pondering of it as a crimson rose, are certain that we all know it. Our perception of its being a crimson rose is unshakable though the rose has by no means mentioned it’s a flower, rose, crimson or lovely. That is the best way information is established in figuring out and seeing. That is known as being deluded by illusions, or being connected to illusions in Buddhism as a result of all information concerning the flower that now we have is simply imaginary labels created by us and never the essence of it. That is why it’s mentioned that when information is established in figuring out and seeing, it’s the root of ignorance.
‘When figuring out and seeing will not be current in figuring out and seeing’ means to see issues with out attaching any labels to them, that’s, to see issues as empty. Once we see issues as empty, we are able to see what now we have not been capable of see earlier than as a result of our eyes are coated by illusions, phrases. In brief, we are able to see the true-Self that’s the essence of all the pieces, that’s, we are able to enter nirvana.
