Unshackling of Shackles —
All things depend upon each other —
On each other, all things depend.
When you follow this to conclusion —
You can see the world of illusions.
There is no thing that can be obtained —
For a thing is a temporary structure.
There is no person that is an individual —
For our networks are inconceivable.
To reflect on this with our objects of desire,
To reflect on this with our objects of anger —
Is to reveal the true basis of our perceptions —
And to experience an unshackling of shackles.
— Luan V Dinh
