Steven Thung 橫看成嶺側成峰,遠近高低各不同;不識廬山真面目,只緣身在此山中。 ---蘇東坡
The mountain seems like a ridge when look horizontally and become a peak when look vertically. Whether from far or near, high or low, it will look different. Not recognizing the real appearance of the Lu Mountain, because one's body is within this very mountain.

    • Francesca Poon Your take is that one is trapped within a mountain that one created?

      Remember GM's riddle of how to get out from the mountain which one is trapped? His answer: One has not even stepped into the mountains, how can he be trapped? tis verse can also mean tat one is ignorant of his own Buddha Nature and trying  to seek it externally, like riding a cow to search for a cow.騎牛找牛。Another meaning to it is tat different ppl hold different views from different standpoints...so they can be right in their own opinions and the one who sees the real Lu Mountain will be able to accept all these views magnanimously. My take is tat this is the 大圓滿level whereby everything is OK and FINE.
