Thusness:
In ignorance, there is hearer hearing sound.
In anatta, in hearing, only sound.
Yet sound has no true inherent nature (empty),
It is an activity and is that very activity call
“hearing”.
Both “hearing and sound” are pointing to the same
activity.
Only when seen to have true existence on either side does
confusion arise.
In Madhyamaka Emptiness, reification is seen
through.
Yet the experiential state of freedom from reification is not
expounded.
However one can have a taste of that freedom from arising
insight of anatta since anatta is precisely the freedom from
reification of Self/self (First fold Emptiness).
In anatta, seeing is simply the full scenery, in hearing only
sound…
thus, always only lights, shape, colors, sounds, scents… in
clean purity.
Emptying the object further (second fold) is merely
dissolving subtle bond of “externality” that creates the appearance
of true existence of objects outside. When “externality” is
deconstructed, it is effectively a double confirmation of
anatta…
…innerly coreless and outward empty, all appearances are
still simply sound, lights, colors and rays
In thorough deconstruction, as there is no layer that
reifies, there is no conceptuality. Therefore no complication, no
confusion, no stains, no boundaries, no center, no sense of
dual..
no sense of activity…just self arising.
All collapse into a single sphere of natural presence and
spontaneous simplicity.
Whatever appears is
neither here nor now,
Neither in nor out,
Neither arises nor ceases,
In the same space…
non-local, timeless and dimensionless
Simply present…
To Jax:
The place where there is no earth, fire, wind, space,
water…
is the place where the earth, fire, wind, space and water
kills “You” and fully shines as its own radiance, a complete taste
of itself and fully itself.
Lastly, it is interesting to get know something about
Dzogchen however the jargons and tenets are far beyond
me.
Just wrote due to a sudden spurt of interest, nothing
intense.
Thanks for all the sharing and exchanges.
Gone!
