display of enlightenment’s empty appearance without trying to catch anything
or being able to be caught.

+When there is never any fear or despair no matter what adversity or suffering
+is encountered, when difficulty is taken as an aid to mind training and you
+always have the help of a joyful mind, then you have acquired proficiency in
+mind training. When adverse conditions come, meditate joyfully and, in
+addition, learn to take joyfully all the adversity others experience.

+The origin of all science is in the desire to know causes; and the origin of
+all false science and imposture is in the desire to accept false causes rather
+than none; or, which is the same thing, in the unwillingness to acknowledge
+our own ignorance.
+ -- William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
