the foremost treasure in the world

[paperofcolor]

"Of all the many things that people value and care for in the world, a person's mind is the most precious. In fact, the mind is the foremost treasure in the world, so be sure to look after it well. To realize the mind's true nature is to realize Truth [Dharma]. Understanding the mind is the same as understanding Truth. Once the mind is known, then the Truth in its entirety is known. Arriving at the truth about one's mind is the realization of liberation."

-Acariya Maha Boowa
