TOPIC: ABOUT SUNYATA |

Posted on Dec.28.2007 @ 07:04PM EDT by chontri
Like using water to quench fire burning,
The emptiness of dharmas has been talked about by wise men,
In order to help people to stop raising views and holding on them,
To get themselves liberated and free.
If one now raises and holds his views of emptiness,
then he cannot be taught, because he entirely misunderstood of it,
Unless, he himself must empty his views of emptiness first

wasn't in the rabbit hutch or in the shed
(i know where the book is but i'm too lazy to go get it)
i was in the bathroom, for a pee, not there, that would be gross
was making a sign that reads 'come right in', but didn't need any book for that, just nice crisp lettering and the wood burning tool
i was at the hospital, and in the car, but that was a book on 'flow' i was reading, like, 2 pages cuz i was so busy with poop and blood and mucus
was in the bedroom, but i don't read in there, just sleep, just sleep
so, I don't know.
zzzzzzzz.......zzzzzzzzzzz..........zzzzzzzzzz...............zzzzzzzzz ( 4 breaths/min) without snoring)
