Brilliant. Like the text the book is analyzing, it packs a lot of wisdom into a small space. Both this and Mu Soeng's writing on the Diamond Sutra are must-reads.

Typical of Mu Soeng, offering immense insight in this ancient text. I was initially concerned about the intention to parallel quantum mechanics by a layperson, but so far the intellectual breadth has been refreshing and QM has played a minor (but important) role.
If anything I have taken away this (paraphrasing), “Conceptions of self are real, but it does not mean the self exists.”
