Sentient beings conceptualise boundaries, causing disharmony throughout the world.

While buddhas experience no boundaries, and love all.

There is no escape. You can't be a vagabond and an artist and still be a solid citizen, a wholesome, upstanding man. You want to get drunk, so you have to accept the hangover. You say yes to the sunlight and pure fantasies, so you have to say yes to the filth and the nausea. Everything is within you, gold and mud, happiness and pain, the laughter of childhood and the apprehension of death. Say yes to everything, shirk nothing.

Hermann Hesse

"Bombarded with stimuli, messages and texts, the masses are simply an opaque, blind stratum, like those clusters of stellar gas known only through analysis of their light spectrum – radiation spectrum equivalent to statistics and surveys – but precisely: it can no longer be a question of expression or representation, but only of the simulation of an ever inexpressible and unexpressed social."

— Jean Baudrillard, In The Shadow Of The Silent Majorities

“Those roads were echoes and footsteps, women, men, agonies, resurrections, days and nights, half dreams and dreams, every obscure instant of yesterday and of the world’s yesterdays, the firm sword of the Dane and the moon of the Persian, the deeds of the dead, shared love, words, Emerson and snow and so many things. Now I can forget them. I reach my center, my algebra and my key, my mirror. Soon I will know who I am.” — Jorge Luis Borges, In praise of shadow
