'There is a story about a poor woman who lives in a world of gold, but because she doesn’t recognize the value of gold, she is convinced that she is poor. Using this simple story as an illustration, if we don’t recognize open intelligence, we spend our life emphasizing the impoverished prison of data reification, rather than the rich powers of great benefit. However, when we rely on open intelligence, we recognize the gold that is the foundation and substance of all of reality. All data shine forth as the golden luminosity of pure intelligence. In a world of gold, everything is gold.' From 'When Surfing a Tsunami...' by Ziji Rinpoche.
