Shackles and Liberation
Posted on Sep 9th, 2008

Mind is the seed of everything, from which sprouts both existence and nirvana. Pay obeisance to it, for, like the wish-fulfilling gem, it gives you the fruit that you desire.
If the mind is shackled, one is also shackled. When it is free, one is also free. There is no doubt about this: that which shackles the ignorant liberates the wise immediately.
- Kanha's Dohakosa
(Buddhist Scriptures, p. 482-483)
