The Failure to Discover Objective Truth Does Not Imply Its Nonexistence

All objective truths and realities do not depend on whether certain beings, some beings, or all beings understand or acknowledge them; objective facts remain facts. The blind cannot see the sun, but that does not mean the sun does not exist. Therefore, the existence of a flower's beauty, or the presence of manifest and non-manifest forms within the five dusts, does not shift according to beings' knowledge or perception. Objective truths and facts require ignorant beings to continually explore and uncover them. Without exploration, there is no discovery; the absence of discovery does not mean objective truths do not exist. The reason they are called objective is precisely because facts and laws do not change according to the will of any individual or collective group of beings. It can only be said whether beings possess the wisdom to discover and recognize them.

Beings all overestimate the importance of their own consciousness. Thus, when consciousness is clouded by ignorance, they fail to recognize their own ignorance and instead complain that truth is absent. Truth is right before their eyes; the crucial question is what perspective one uses to perceive it.

In the Saha World, when the vast majority of beings neither recognize nor accept the Dharma, Buddhas and Saints will not come to this world to propagate the Dharma and teach. Beings who do not wish to awaken cannot attract the light. Even if the light shines constantly above their heads, they will remain in deep slumber, unable to awaken.
