Nirvana is a state of the non-dualistic mind, I live in a society that relies heavily on ego, everyone is caught up in the rat race, they seek peace but peace can't be obtained through this type of social structure, a Buddhist path is all about obtaining enlightenment and seeing the true nature of your reality.
Is that Buddhism or Psychology 101? Could you show me exactly where in the Four Seals of the Dharma the term non-dualistic mind is referenced where achieving Nirvana? True, a Buddhist's path is all about obtaining enlightenment, but I still don't think you are remotely practicing Buddhism. What I'm saying is, I'm not reading the words of an enlightened mind ... I'm reading the words of a very distraught goth kid.
