Daily Dharma
Holding illusory appearances to be true makes you
weary.
Therefore when you meet with disagreeable
circumstanes,
See them as illusory—
This is the practice of Bodhisattvas.
[...from The Thirty-Seven Practices of Bodhisattvas: An Oral Teaching by Geshe Sonam Rinchen, translated and edited by Ruth Sonam, pg. 59]
Hmmmm, this is an interesting philosophy.

Buddhism is an interesting philosophy. Yes, I agree that everything is illusory.
Air, food, water and money are illusory too, but NO one can live without them, even though they are all illusory.
Some illusory things are important in life too. :-))
