| All is mind made. It is like a man's painting a devil,
a creature from hell, or a dragon, or a tiger. He paints it, looks at
it, and is frightened. |

There is, however, nothing at all in the painted
figure itself which is fearsome. All is the brushwork of your own
imagination, your own discrimination. |
|
From the first not a thing there is, except what you have made out of your
own illusive mind. |
