' Conditioned Phenomena '...


"After doing something we should forget about it and go on to the next matter.

Nothing should be taken as ultimately real.

As the Vajra Sutra says,

'All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows, like dew drops or flashes of lightening.'

One should contemplate them thus."
