We adopted the values, morals and assumptions of our parents and the culture in which we all lived. We were fish, at the mercy of the pond. But something has changed. This strange thing called awakening has started to happen. Some of us began to question whether the way things were are the way they have to be. Of course, there have always been people in history who have done that. Some completely transformed culture. Others ended up barbecued on a stake. But never has it happened on such a massive scale as to cause disruption and even chaos, not just in one isolate place, but everywhere. But, while we can look outward at the current turmoil of the world, that is only a reflection of the deeper alchemy at work within our own hearts. The liberation of the world and all the social systems it contains, can only occur following the liberation of individual human souls. Breaking the long chain of ancestral burdens requires deep self examination, in the bright light of wisdom. And at the heart of that wisdom is a simple insight. Your conditioning was your training not your being None of us escaped childhood without enormous parts of our natural brilliance repressed. Our parents did to us what their parents did to them. And their parents did to them and so on and so on and so on back into the primordial soup. What is different now though is that many. many of us are aware of it. We are recognizing conditioning as conditioning. Thus it is not essentially who we are. As far as I am concerned this is the second biggest discovery a human being can make. And it opens the door to the biggest discovery of all... what you essentially are. That recognition of conditioning as conditioning sets in motion a process, a practice, a sadhana. The ancestral burden has infiltrated every aspect of individual life; thought, emotion and sensation and thus has shaped all experience. Integrating this wisdom into your everyday life is the true spiritual path. And that opens the door to a stunning realization. Since the current state of the world is a reflection of the inner state of the human collective i have a power I didn't know I had. My individual, every day embodiment of freedom from conditioning is, simultaneously, the liberation and healing of the entire world Your liberation from ancestral burdens is the liberation of the whole. Do you want to save the world? Well, now you know how. The buck really does stop here.

Understanding is not a piercing of the mystery, but an acceptance of it, a living blissfully with it, in it, through and by it.

strongly dislike athena. because how are you gonna construct a daughter. someone who seemingly perfect. so perfect that they don't wound your pride. but refuse to acknowledge her existence for years. and then give her a crumb of a mother's approval. only to disown her like a year later. and then send her on a quest that no child of your has ever come back from. so much for the goddess of wisdom.

Heart Sutra ~ A sutra that describes “The Heart of the Perfection of Wisdom" (4) 

The Idea of “Prajnaparamita Hridhya Sutra” ~ “All things are truth itself.”

The Large Prajnaparamita Sutra, including the Heart Sutra, explains the basis for making things as they are by rejecting Buddhist doctrines and nomenclature, which are classified and explained in numbers, such as the Three Realms (Ref), the Four Noble Truths (Ref2), the Five Skandhas, the Six Realms, the Eightfold Path (Ref3), the Twelve Causes (Ref4) and the Hundred Laws, as essentially unsubstantial. This sutra expresses it in one character, ‘empty (Ref5)’, but if you stick to the ‘empty conception’ there, you will now be lost in ‘emptiness’. This is referred to as suffering from ‘Empty sickness’.

So you have to further continue to deny that the emptiness is also empty.

It teaches the Middle Way (Ref6), which excludes all fixed oppositions and does not obsess over substance and at the same time not attached to ‘emptiness’.

This is the ‘Dharma realities’, in other words, everything is truth in itself.

般若心経 〜「智慧の完成」の精髄を述べる経典 (4)

『般若波羅蜜多心経 (梵: ﾌﾟﾗｼﾞｭﾅｰﾊﾟｰﾗﾐﾀｰ･ﾌﾘﾀﾞﾔ･ｽｰﾄﾗ) 』の思想 〜 “すべてのものは真実そのものである。”  

『般若心経』を含む『大般若経』は総じて、三界（参照）、四諦（参照2）、五蘊、六道、八正道（参照3）、十二因縁（参照4）、百法といった数字で分類・説明される仏教の教義や名目などを、本質的に実体のないものとして否定することで、物事をあるがままに生かす根拠を説いている。この経典はそれを「空」（参照5）という一文字で表現するのであるが、そこで「空の観念」に固執すると、今度は「空」というものに迷うことになる。これを「空病」にかかったという。

そこでさらに「空もまた空である」と否定し続けなければならない。

あらゆる固定した対立を排除して、実体に固執することなく、それと同時に「空」に固執することもない中道（参照6）を教えている。これを「諸法実相」、つまりすべてのものは真実そのものであるということである。

I too wish Zelda could stab monsters with a sword but we have to acknowledge throwing an entire boulder at them is also very funny
