Wisdom arises from clearly perceiving reality as it is from "summary" of New Heart of Wisdom by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
True understanding emerges when one sees the world without distortion. This clarity allows individuals to grasp the nature of all phenomena, revealing their impermanent and interdependent characteristics. When we perceive reality accurately, we cultivate insight into the transient nature of thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Recognizing the emptiness of inherent existence leads to a deeper comprehension of suffering and its origins. By seeing how our attachments and aversions shape our experiences, we can begin to unravel the confusion that clouds our perceptions. This process fosters a sense of freedom, as it liberates the mind from the shackles of delusion and ignorance. Observing reality as it truly is encourages compassion and understanding towards oneself and others. When one realizes that everyone shares similar struggles and desires, empathy blossoms. This compassionate outlook nurtures harmonious relationships and enriches the human experience. The journey towards clarity is not instantaneous; it requires diligent practice and reflection. Engaging in meditation and mindfulness cultivates a sharper awareness, allowing individuals to notice the subtleties of their thoughts and reactions. As this awareness deepens, the wisdom that arises naturally guides actions and decisions, aligning them with a more profound understanding of the world. By consistently returning to the present moment and observing experiences without attachment or aversion, one can develop a stable foundation of insight. This foundation supports the ability to navigate life with grace and resilience, transforming obstacles into opportunities for growth and learning. Through this practice, the mind becomes a vessel of profound understanding, illuminating the path to a more fulfilling existence.
