Copy: What Is the nature of Reality?

[D.O.]

What is reality? Is reality free from the extremes of both monism and plurality? Mādhyamaka says:

a. Everything appears as mere labels (thoughtforms) designated upon causes and conditions. This applies to yourself, deities, time, the causes and conditions themselves, and even the principle of causality itself.

b. By its very nature conceptual thought is dichotomizing, yet "reality" (or lack of it) is free from all extremes.

c. There is a primordial freedom from grasping your mind. Mind being defined as the thing always on the Three Times (past, present, future).
