Emptiness
02/13/2024

When some-thing and its non-existence
both cease from the mind,
the mind itslef rests in peace,
such tranquility knows no bound.
You ask what is real and what is not.
I answer just watch your mind.
All things become clear
when the mind loses interest in its 'things'
To understand emptiness,
we need to know suffering.
Like a magician who creates
mirages of women for his entertainment,
and forgets his own illusion,
we all have become slaves of our conditions.
Then what must a man do?
How must he approach his life?
The wise sage, always states:
To do no evil, to help the needy,
and to rest the mind in stillness
is all that is needed...
