Dualism

In seeking enlightenment, there is no enlightenment. In desiring heaven, there is no heaven. In wanting nirvana, there is no nirvana. The path to enlightenment does not exist, yet it does. It seems to be a paradox but it is not.

Right and wrong are the same, yet they are different. They are dependent on our individual perceptions thus they bear no meaning beyond our own minds. When we focus on things that are only in our minds, we will not be able to concentrate on things that are beyond. How then will enlightenment come about?
