Essential Point:
You are Emptiness.
You are Nothingness.
You are Spaciousness.
Overview:
When the Buddha was asked what and who we are, he responded with the word “Emptiness.” The Nature of this Response is as wise as it is helpful to the Spiritualist because Emptiness is harder to make into a mental concept that can be used to Form an Egoic Identity through, which is an Identity as derived through the Mind.
Our Essential Self is Emptiness. It is Nothingness. It is No-“thing.” It is Pure Spaciousness, which exists beyond the Sense-Perceived World, and what enables the Sense-Perceived World in which all objects of Space Exist and are Perceived.
Emptiness is the Silent and Spacious Stillness that is the Formless, Unmanifested Dimension itself and what enables all Manifestations of Form to be. While Emptiness is ultimately Unknowable, it is alert and Alive and it can be Realized. When it is Realized as Self, this is the Essence of Enlightenment. Through Enlightenment, the Light of Consciousness shines upon the Illusions of Reality so that they Dissolve and only Truth remains. As Jesus once said, “You are the Light of the World,” and that Light is of Emptiness, which is of Consciousness.
The Empty Self, or No-self, that the Buddha famously asserted over 2500 years ago has only just recently been validated with modern science. Through Quantum Physics we can now Perceive that the Human Body, which is comprised of trillions of “atoms,” is in actuality Spacious Nothingness, which is to say Pure Energy, or Emptiness, when viewed under the microscope at the subatomic level.
In this profound sense, Emptiness is who you are, And it is directly experienced through Stillness, Stillness of the Mind so that the Human is Silenced and the Being is heard. Such is the Essential Realization of the Awakening Journey – You are Nothing, and that is Everything.
