Truth

This bodhisattva is the bodhisattva of all the universal teaching, all the dharma. As Avalokitesvara is the bodhisattva of compassion, this bodhisattva is the bodhisattva of wisdom or truth. By “truth” I do not mean some truth in an ordinary sense. It is more than truth. It is more concrete. It is more tangible. —Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-01-11B - as found on shunryusuzuki.com edited by PF. Go to instagram.com/cuke_archives or cuke.com/ig for links to the full Shunryu Suzuki lecture and the source of the photo.
