“Maya can be compared to ringworm on one’s skin. The more you scratch, the more you want to scratch and the more pained and miserable you become. In the same way, the more you indulge in maya, the more you want to get involved in it and one becomes all the more pained and miserable.”

(Is That So. p47)
