The mind is Emptiness.
What is the content of the mind. You may say that the mind is full but only full of thoughts and ideas. Full of thinking. But thoughts and ideas are exactly empty.. So the mind is full of emptiness.
When the mind is empty of thoughts it is empty but in that state it is full of all possibilities.

So the Mind which is considered to important is nothing but Emptiness.
Even if the mind is full of thoughts and thinking.. it is full of empty things, the thoughts and ideas. Thoughts are nothing but dealing with the pasts and imaginations of the future. Thoughts are about the pasts which are gone and imaginations of something that has not happened yet..
So don't you think that those thoughts and imaginations are empty things...
So even if the mind is full of thoughts in reality it is empty. When the mind is empty of thoughts.. it is empty..
What the mind is always empty... the mind is emptiness...

I guess you are all afraid to realize that your mind is really empty.. that your mind is the Emptiness you are all talking about...
It is Emptiness talking about Emptiness... that is the greatest illusion.. being always deluded...

No, not Zen sickness. :-)
Just a lot of things going on around here. I'm concerned about a good friend who has cancer, and some other things I've been helping people with.
