“ Thirty spokes share the wheel’s hub; It is the center hole that makes it useful.
Shape clay into a vessel; It is the space
within that makes it useful.
Cut doors and windows for a room; It is the
holes which make it useful.
Therefore profit comes from what is there; Usefulness
comes from what is NOT there.”
Tao te Ching, Lao Tsu, circa 600 BC
Eliminate that which you
are NOT; this enables you to be that which you always ARE.
Space is the source and the substance of all creation, allowing all that exists to be.
Space is the source and the substance of all creation, allowing all that exists to be.
Silence is the womb and
the body of all sound; it contains ,and is interwoven with, thunder and
birdsong and music.
Being is the foundation
of life : first you must BE, before you can know or do.
The background is more
important than the foreground.
Turn your attention away
from the contents: focus on the container that is being-space-silence.
It gives birth to
everything, contains everything, yet remains pristine, perfect, untouched and
unattached to anything.
Stainless and unchanging
as the sky, this is the foundation of all , the Tao, the mother of “the ten
thousand things”.
Stillness. Emptiness. Silence.
Existence.
You cannot know it, you can only BE it.
Timeless presence.
Infinite and eternal
perfection.
Conscious, blissful, peace.
