Many years ago I read a saying .... can you help me find it....
it goes roughly like this ..
IT is too wonderous to be believed ..
IT is too simple to be understood ...
IT is too near to be seen ....
This is just a vague recollection ...
Saying It is too wonderous to be believed ...
Re: Saying It is too wonderous to be believed ...
Depends on the translation. I've heard it as the "four flaws" or "four faults" of Mahamudra:
So close you can't see it
So deep you can't fathom it
So simple you can't believe it
So good you can't accept it
