If you are what you grasp,
You would not be here.
For what you grasp come and goes;
It cannot be you.
How can the grasped be the grasper?

Nagarjuna

from Verses from the Center
by Stephen Batchelor

Life is no different from nirvana,
Nirvana no different from life.
Life’s horizons are nirvana’s:
The two are exactly the same.
