"The six small booklets in this series contain single essays from Avatar Adi Da's forthcoming book, The Basket Of Tolerance. This 19-page booklet contains a seminal Essay by Avatar Adi Da about the differences and the fundamental similarities that can be found at the core of both Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta.""The Buddhist proposition that conditional existence is (itself, or inherently) suffering is not based merely on the practical observation that life can be difficult, and pain can be experienced, and eventual death is inevitable for all. Rather, the Buddhist equation of conditional existence and suffering is based on the summary insight (founded on constant observation) that conditional existence (or every moment and kind of conditional being or event) is only conditionally existing (or existing due to some, necessarily transitory, cause).""-Avatar Adi Da Samraj"
