Excerpt
Excerpt: To see things as they really are means to see them consistently in the light of the three characteristics. Not to see them in this way, or to deceive oneself about their reality and range of application, is the defining mark of ignorance, and ignorance is by itself a potent cause of suffering, knitting the net in which man is caught - the net of false hopes, of unrealistic and harmful desires, of delusive ideologies and of perverted values and aims.
