The Diamond Sutra
This reading did not make quite as much sense to me as the others.It is hard to talk about something that is "ungraspable and inexpressible." I think that it has to be something like how people just know when they know. When people talk about find the right one for them they always say I just knew. It is something you can not convey to others. "The mind should be kept independent of any thoughts that arise within it." I think this is supose to be the meditative state. You seperate your body and mind. To be truely at peace, or in the trace of meditation this seperation is necessary. It is not something that you can show others, it just is. Many people do not understand how this could be possible until they experience it for them selves. There is no such thing as perfect wisdom, I think being wise is just observing and looking outside yourself for answers. It is also not being worried about finding all the answers.
