Points of View

Another paragraph from the same book that I want to share with everyone. Hope it increase your understanding of this reality we are in.

"Relatively speaking, there are right views and there are wrong views. But if we look deeply, we see that all view are wrong views. No view can ever be the truth. It is just from one point; that is why it is called a 'point of view'. If we go to another point, we will see things differently and realize our first view was not entirely right."

Another food for thought! Again, do share your comments on this. It would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Agree completely with the statement, however I will say all views are right views instead. Everybody has his/her own thinking anyway. Especially when someone asks for our advices or opinions, we will need to put ourselves in his/her shoes, understand the situation so we will be able to really help the person. This is my point of view ;)

Well I guess that means there is no such thing as the right view. But then if so, then what do you mean by a wrong view? So I guess a better way to say there is a certain degree of truthness of a view.

The above is my view which unfortunately is just another "point of view". But that just means life gets more difficul, since we are always acting from our viewpoint.
