佛陀教導我們要放下那些本質非永恆的事物。如果你放下一切事物，就會看到真理；如果不的話，就看不到；事物就是如此。當智慧在你內心甦醒時，不論你往哪兒看，都會看見真理。
The Buddha taught to lay down those things that lack a real abiding essence. If you lay everything down you will see the truth. If you don’t, you won’t. That’s the way it is. And when wisdom awakens within you, you will see truth wherever you look. Truth is all you’ll see.
