KNOWLEDGE
AND VIEWS ARE NOT PRODUCED, THIRTY-ONE
" Subhuti, suppose someone were to say that the Buddha spoke of the view
of self, the view of others, the view of living beings and the view of
a life. Subhuti, what do you think, does that person understand the meaning
of my teachings?" "No, World Honored One, that person does not understand
the meaning of the Thus Come One's teachings. Why? What the World Honored
One spoke of as the view of self, view of others, view of living beings
and view of a life is not the view of self, view of others, view of living
beings and view of a life. Therefore they are called the view of self,
view of others, view of living beings and the view of a life." "Subhuti,
those who have resolved their minds on Anuttarasamyaksambodhi should,
in regards to all dharmas, thus know, thus perceive, and thus believe
and understand and not set up appearances of dharmas. Subhuti, what the
Thus Come One speaks of as appearances of dharmas are not appearances
of dharmas. Therefore they are called appearances of dharmas."
