Theta Pati

The 3 LIGHTS of the Heart
—
This universe is made of the 6 Worlds of Samsara, with its Devas and Maras, it is based both on the 4 elements, originated from the nothingness, and on changement, that is why everything can be clearly seen just as an illusion, not real because without a self and always born from causes or conditions, only taking to Delusion or Dukkha.

This universe, where the Truth or Dhamma is so rare to appear, it is a prison made by the own Ignorance and by the cravings coming from it, that only take to the Delusion of the expectations for any type of ‘own’ happiness.

In this universe there are 3 LIGHTS, not born from causes or conditions and never changing nor finishing :

1st Loving Kindness or Metta, taking to unity and to overcome division or any difference through purity of Heart

2nd Wisdom or Panna of the Heart , the one that, when rightly trained, can defeat Ignorance, overcoming in this way the 6 lower Worlds of Samsara for reaching one of the 4 Higher Worlds or Nibbana.

3rd the Dhamma, also called the only never changing Law of this universe, saying : “everything changes”, where Impermanence or Anicca and Not-Self or Anatta can be found.

Because the Self cannot be found in anything inside this universe, any idea of Self is an illusion, since only and always based on both Dependent Origination or Karma and on continuous changement.

Once the Self is understood as untrue, then the Not-Self can be discerned and used to overcome samsara through its unchanging Law and Truth, i.e. the Dhamma, that is only available when a Buddha appears and during His Dhamma-Wheel turning.

This is my humble view of illusion and of reality…

With Mudita i hope it may help others too, above all in taking the right decision and follow the only 3 real things in this universe.
