[…] Take a look at these Chinese people, these ancient people. One cannot help but admire them. They created the words "thought 思" and " think 想".
What is thought? Thought is individuality. A field above and a heart at the bottom. What is a field? A checkered grid. There are boundaries. That's called "thought".
What about thinking? Thinking is a duality with 相. There is bidirectionality. If you think of a person, you think of a duality, and a face. If you think of Buddha, you think of duality, and see Buddha's face. Thinking about something in your mind, and you see a duality and a face.
When you see a duality, and a face, that’s thinking. You see confinement and distinction, that’s thought.
Thoughts and thinkings are not readily available items. They are not real, they’re non-concrete items. Thoughts are illusions. There is no real truth.
Dreams are imaginary. How long do dreams last? How long does the phenomenon of dreams exist? It is what Maitreya-natha had said
2,240 trillionths of a second. The unit is trillion. In other words, in one second, this fluctuating phenomenon.
Thought, is given birth and extinguished 2,240 trillion times. Right in front of us. Never interrupted.
From Life to Death. With life, you bring it with you; with death, you also take it with you. This is the cycle of reincarnation. This is what we refer to as the Ten Dharma Realms.
Except if you let go of all thoughts, separations and attachments. No more. Congratulations! You have now enter the realm of all Buddhas. It's precisely as this passage in the sutra.
You have attained fruition.
