*"The Absolute looked at through thought-forms is phenomenon. The latter freed of the superimposed thought-forms, is the Absolute. Nagarjuna therefore declares that there is not the least difference between the world and the absolutely real. Transcendent to thought, the absolute, however, is thoroughly immanent in experience. ...this immanence, the phenomenalisation of the absolute...is of two kinds: one through avidya and its satellites, the klesas; and the other is the free conscious assumption of phenomenal forms activated by prajna and karuna. The former is the unconscious activity of the ignorant and the latter is that of the enlightened Buddhas and Bodhisattvas."T.R.V. Murti

Wonderfully clear explanation of the Absolute (as much as the Absolute can be contained in words :)). I especially like the first two sentences. Thanks Dan.
I agree with Mike. Nice one, Dan. Thanks.
I agree with you both, and thank you both!
I am with it up to the description of the "2 kinds..." where it gets confusing... the vocabulary is not what I am familiar with... but, the first part... Yes...!
Let's see: "Wonderfully clear explanation," and "it gets confusing".
:-) Guess I'm doing something right...
