Hinayana Buddhism
Lack of substance
The
wise grasps the fourfold emptiness disclosed in the words: "I am
nowhere a somewhatness for any one, and nowhere for me is there a
somewhatness of any one."
Therefore has it been said
as follows:
-
"Dukkha only does exist, none miserable.
No doer is there; nothing but the deed is found.
Nirvana is, but not the man who seeks it.
The Path exists, but not the walker on it."
(Visuddhimagga
-the Path of Purification- XVI, in H.C.Warren,
Buddhism in Translations,
Cambridge Mass. 1915, p. 145)
