For him, what is experienced is what is. That seems to acknowledge the inescapability of the subjective perspective and, in effect, eradicates it.

And there is where dwells the greatness of the historical Buddha. Fortunatley he was neither a redeemer nor a phylosopher... He was a Buddha, the one who is awake...

To see the veracity of his teachings and the benefits of his practice for oneself is enough.

Nothing more to say... so simple to understand!
