To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


A. — Infinite Enlightenment.
By infinite enlightenment is meant that which has no false notions and is infinite like space, one with the True Form as in instinct and intuition. This is the natural state of the Incarnate True Form (Ju Lai) and is called the original state of enlightenment. This is to distinguish it from acquired enlightenment which cultivates that infinite enlightenment, for the two have the same thing in common though it is only in part. Where there is the original infinite enl
...ightenment there exists finite enlightenment in those who seek after it. Where there exists finite enlightenment, there is more enlightenment to be acquired.
Again, when one attains to the original enlighten- ment it is called the perfect enlightenment. When one has not attained to the original enlightenment it is not perfect enlightenment.
For example, when an ordinary man discovers that his former ideas were wrong and is able to prevent such ideas arising any more, such knowledge on his part, though it might be called a kind of enlightenment is only finite.
