   The Lankavatara Sutra goes out of its way to insist that all seeming   
   phenomena are "mind only".   
      
   Could that be?   
      
   Does "mind" appear simultaneously with the notion of "I" (referred   
   to in some texts as "the I-thought")? So that all that seems to be   
   happening therein is literally thoughts considered (it's mind, after   
   all..) to be more than merely thoughts? Does the belief/faith they're   
   more than merely thoughts make them seemly such so convincingly   
   that there's no unseeing it apart from no longer believing it?   
      
   Is mind solid representation considered to be no mere representation?   
      
   Who's fooling who?   
      
   Indeed, is said "who" merely a thought believed to be more than   
   merely a thought?   
      
   Says who?
