A poster says this is a fake Buddha quote? Regardless, it is still a timely quote and thanks to whomever the original author might be.

3. Fake Buddha quote

It's from "A Way Forward: Spiritual Guidance for Our Troubled Times, by Anna Voigt and Nevill Drury"

4. Buddha nature changes?

Is Buddha Nature also temporary, transient and changing?

Asking for an Advaitin

6. Mayavāda vs Theravada

In both you must give up the boat in order to cross the river.

9. Sounds like a math problem

How to cross a river with a goose, a fox, and a bag of grain using a boat that will only hold you and one other thing?

[Nitram]

8. I would add that "truth" as we know it is not a concept in Buddhism.

Great quote nevertheless.
