The Idea of External and Internal Is Just the Mind
The idea of external and internal is just the mind dividing experience - this separation is a mental concept, not reality itself.
Key Teachings
- The distinction between external and internal is a mental construction, not an ultimate truth
- What we call 'mind' encompasses both external perceptions and internal thoughts - the division is illusory
- The apparent separation we experience between self and world is created by the mind itself
