In this talk, recorded April 29, 1988, Gourasana says, “It is not an easy thing to find the truth. To find truth that is not contaminated with illusion is very rare indeed. Almost all philosophies that are common or popular are interwoven with so much illusion and darkness. So, even while finding some truth those that are seeking, simultaneously they are also accepting so much darkness and illusion as the truth. And as a result of this, they cannot come to a state of full awareness.” He tells the audience that anyone can benefit from finding the truth and letting go of illusion, but someone who does not want to take rebirth must work until only the truth remains at the time of their death.

Audio length: one hour, 16 minutes.
