What is Causation I, and how can we develop pureness?
If you understand this philosophy 😄from your heart 💚
You will be free from all suffering 🎊
Our heart created “causation I “as an illusion being that never ends
But A creates B, So A is not B
Our heart is not an illusion, being.
The causation I come from all the others, so it has no true self
The true heart has No beginning and No end
It always remains pure and free
So we can never find Nirvana because Nirvana is always there.
(From Pure Name Buddha’s book, Vimalakirti Sutra)

Further explanation:
The passage you shared reflects the teachings of the Vimalakirti Sutra, particularly its perspective on causation and the development of purity. In the Vimalakirti Sutra, causation is often explored to challenge conventional notions of self and reality.
According to the passage, the concept of “causation I” is described as an illusion or a mistaken perception that there is a separate and enduring self, an “I,” that exists independently from other phenomena. It suggests that our sense of self is constructed through a chain of cause and effect, where one thing gives rise to another. However, the passage asserts that because A creates B, A is not B. This implies that the self, represented by the “causation I,” is not a fixed or independent entity but rather a result of interdependent causes and conditions.
In terms of developing purity, the passage suggests that true purity lies in recognizing the illusory nature of the “causation I” and realizing the true nature of the heart or mind. It suggests that the heart, or true self, is not bound by causation and is not an illusion. It is described as pure, free, and timeless, without a beginning or an end. This implies that by realizing the heart’s true nature, one can transcend the cycle of suffering and attain a state of liberation or Nirvana.
The passage emphasizes that Nirvana, the state of ultimate liberation and freedom from suffering, is always present and accessible because it is inherent in the nature of the true heart. It suggests that by understanding the illusory nature of the self and cultivating insight into the true nature of reality, one can realize the inherent purity and freedom that already exists within.
