"Nihilism is a form of ignorance, it is an ignorance of the true nature of reality. This ignorance can only be dispelled by wisdom and understanding." (The Samyutta Nikaya 22.95) "Nihilism is a form of suffering, it is a suffering that comes from the belief that life is meaningless. This suffering can only be ended by finding meaning in life." (The Dhammapada 122) "Nihilism is a form of violence, it is a violence that is done to oneself and to others. This violence can only be stopped by compassion and love." (The Lotus Sutra) "Nihilism is a form of death, it is a death of the spirit. This death can only be avoided by living a life of truth and meaning." (The Dhammapada)
