Nirvana and Dogmatic Conceptions


This goal is as high as a mountain, so you can take a short cut straight to the mountaintop or you can take the long way and allow yourself to rest on the journey. If you can't make it today, then you can camp on the hillside and continue the climb tomorrow. The monastic way is the good way to reach Nirvana, but it isn't necessary the "best way." In Buddhism, there is no such thing as the "best way" or the "only way" because "best" and "only" are dogmatic conceptions.
