The discriminating mind...

"The discriminating mind is only a mind

for the discrimination of imagined differences

that greed and other moods relating to the self

have created.

The discriminating mind is

subject to causes and conditions,

it is empty of any self-substance,

and it is constantly changing.

But, since people believe that this mind

is their real mind,

the delusion enters into the causes and conditions

that produce suffering."
