To understand something intellectually is not yet to see it spiritually. Every person acts according to what they understand -yet that understanding may itself be illusion. The crook, the scholar, the zealot, and the saint alike manifest the limits of their understanding. None of us can act beyond what we perceive to be true.

When mindfulness is grounded in wisdom, zeal arises. From zeal springs joy; from joy, serenity; from serenity, faith; and from faith, equanimity. These are not separate attainments but the natural unfolding of realization.
Joy is their current and their power: the living fuel of enlightenment. It is the laughter of emptiness within the play of forms, the recognition that every phenomenon, from galaxies to thoughts, is a ripple upon the same luminous sea.
To live by the Dharma is to rest in that sea: unmoved yet ever moving, empty yet overflowing. The world, seen rightly, is not an illusion to escape but an ineffable wonder, a ‘magic show’ .
Light does not compete with darkness; it simply shines.
