"And so this brings us to the final formula of the Bodhisattava way, the way of the one who is grounded in eternity and moving in the field of time. The field of time is the field of sorrow. “All life is sorrowful.” And it is. If you try to correct the sorrows all you do its shift them somewhere else. Life is sorrowful. How do you live with that? You realize the eternal within yourself. You disengage and yet, reengage. You—and here’s the beautiful formula—“participate with the joy in the sorrows of the world.” You play the game. It hurts, but you know that you have found the place that is transcendent of injury and fulfillments. You are there, and that’s it."
