  • Enlightenment after all is to overcome delusion, by way of sensitizing practitioners to complexities and problems of the human situation.

  • Paradoxically, the more deeply one grows in enlightenment, the more clearly one discerns one's own frailties and limitations.

  • Those who greatly enlighten delusion are buddhas; those who are greatly deluded about enlightenment are sentient beings.

  • Enlightenment is construed as seeing things as they really are rather than as they appear; it is a direct insight into, and discernment of, the nature of reality that is apprehended only by wisdom, which transcends and is prior to the activity of discriminative thought. In this view, delusion is defined as all that is opposed to enlightenment.
