Phenomena: Permanent phenomena (non-things) are conventional truths. Impermanent phenomena are ultimate truths.
▪ Conventional Truth (Conception): Is inferential valid cognition. It is to experience phenomena indirectly through words and thoughts. Conception is generally characterized phenomena (abstractions); universals; mere imputation – it is conventional truth.
▪ Ultimate Truth (Perception): Is direct valid cognition. It is to experience phenomena directly through the senses. Perception is specifically characterized phenomena; particulars; exists from its own side – it is ultimate truth.
▪ Discriminate between mediating through concepts and direct perceptual experience – that is, be mindful of mistaking conceptions for perceptions.
Selflessness ▪
Is the lack of an intrinsic or inherent self. Self does not exist since it cannot be apprehended by direct or inferential valid cognition. ▪ Only selflessness (emptiness) of persons, not of phenomena.
