RE: The Ten Stages of the Mahayana Bodhisattva Path
in the science of Sufi there is known as salik and al wasil, salik is a new person struggling to cleanse the heart of all forms of evil, all vengeance, all anger. so that his relationship with god is still tangled fantasy or stain.
al washers who have reached the stage of the sanctity of the soul, they are also in some degree, the most sacred level is called mortal, that is no longer look at anything in this nature other than all his mind is directed to god
Yes that is key, one must clean the mind and heart so one can see what one is aiming for...are we trying to see through our ignorance and mistake God for our delusions? Or do we really want to see God as God is, not as we wish God to be...In Buddhist context, we want to break through our conditioning and see reality as it is so we can turn around and see who is watching the display of our senses and conditioning...hahaha
