Small Steps

As I study Buddha's teaching, often one teaching helps me understand a different one. This sometimes results in an "AH HA" moment for me, not unlike uncovering a treasure. . The treasure may be fools gold, as my understanding may be completely wrong, but there is still the "AH HA" moment. I had one of these insights (?) this week at the Sutra study class. The subject discussed was the "consciousness only" school. I think I may be starting to understand what "consciousness only" means. This glimmer of understanding is helping to clarify some small parts of the Diamond Sutra for me.
