What does it mean to investigate reality? It means that you must forget all hearsay and examine truth for yourself, for you do not know whether statements you hear are in accordance with reality or not. Wherever you find truth or reality, you must hold to it, forsaking, discarding all else; for outside of reality there is naught but superstition and imagination.
