The MahaPrajnaParamita Sutra states a Bodhisattva is, ”anyone who ceaselessly seeks unexcelled, perfect enlightenment as well as the happiness and welfare of all beings.

Thinking about thinking is to reveal that there is a thinker who thinks. Of what nature is that ”thinker” and how does it manifest?

The ”thing” (walking, talking, bodhisattva, etc...) is not the ”thing” itself; rather it is the result of the energies put forth to manifest the ”thing” that are the thingness. mass = Energy/”c” squared (kinetic, momentum).

The Perfection of Wisdom is a process but is not itself the Perfection of Wisdom. The Perfection of Wisdom is the process one undertakes to achieve the state of attainment one derives from the process of Perfection of Wisdom.

The Diamond Sutra of the Perfection of Wisdom sutras is a well-known and pivotal early Mahayana text on the development of a great being or Bodhisattva.

The Buddha of Absolute Freedom is the mind state that perceives life in discrete moments of ”being” rather than concatenating those moments into a separate real ”thing”.

All this Karika is demonstrating is in the profound understanding from dependent origination, that all our Samsaric experience is constructed from a flow of momentary instantiations that occur in mind as a continuous ”line”, while in reality never ”are” or ”become” a line or linear ”thing”.

Dharma of two minds; that of ’being’ and that of observing the ’being’. Two ’experiences’; one bound by Samsara, distinctions and identification, the other unbound and free to live fully in the revels of time.
