The traditional view of purification is "getting rid of", which causes a division between "pure" and "unpure". This division causes (internal) conflict. It's not that the kind of purification I'm talking about doesn't result in the same loss of pride, selfishness, judgment, and so forth. But rather it comes about as a natural movement toward the result, somewhat like the way the leaves on a tree tend to be green. Well, in a way, that’s just my point.
