Those who remain unmoved by the winds of pleasure are in accord with the Way.All beings possess the same true nature, though it is obscured and not apparent due to worldly attachments and delusion.
Everything arises from conditions, and all beings, not having independent existence, evolve through time according to conditions. Bitterness and happiness both arise from conditions. Gain and loss arise due to conditions.
If we attain great achievements and acclaim, it is only due to past conditions. And though we may have it now, if the conditions that brought it to us are exhausted, then it will be gone. Why should one take joy in it?
Recognition of conditions and acting according to those conditions is a gate for entering the Way.
