"This emptiness is not a trivial thing. It's the most supreme state. But in the consciousness there is this itching, and I use this term: the athlete's foot mind. In the mind the thought is coming, there is this itching, and it feels it needs a scratch, you know. Like a question arising, something more to be solved, or resolved. But I say: only stay as this, and that itchiness will subside. When this itchiness is there, there is the temptation to start to scratch it, but it just makes it more bloody and awful. So just take note of that for the moment. But stay as you are."

Emptiness is the source of all.
Of the father of creation (Light)
Of the divine mothers womb (Darkness)
The eternal dance of male & female, yin & yang spring from this emptiness, like the scent of the empty flower, this scent being the blissful joyous dance of life.
The joy flows unbroken, the suffering is on the surface to keep us moving to higher realms of joy, ever growing closer to return to emptiness, the blissful joy is always there in & underneath the surface, much less than a scratch away.
Essentially all is empty, no-thing lasts, all is impermanent.
Emptiness is all that is.
An empty deeply orgasmic ecstatic unconditional love, from which springs the yin/yang dance of creation to feel the blissfullness of union, first through separation.

We all have pure consciousness within us, every single being has this seed, from a dog to us, there is the seed of the pure light of consciousness, animal/life consciousness looks outside, externally seeking for survival. We as humans are able to to turn within we do this by first asking "why survival, what is this thing we call life?" awareness of death is something that is useful, then we turn inside to the meaning of being, when you fully do this the conditioning is gone, as "you" are gone when you turn inside, the external seeker is "you", when you are inside "you" are no more, theres nothing, no-mind, a void, an emptiness. This emptiness is the deepest ecstatic love imaginable, boundless. Joy of being springs from it like an endless fountain.
We ALL feel an emptiness inside at some point, this emptiness has a lingering of death so we run away, if we turn around and face this emptiness, feel it penetrate our being, go into the body with it as it penetrates it turns into an explosion of bliss.

"That alone is the path and that alone is the destination. The courage to be empty is all that is needed to become one with the all."
"Emptiness is the Doorway to Truth
Emptiness is the Means
Emptiness is the Destination"
"This vast expanse of our world was born out of emptiness, which is without form, and it will return to the same emptiness. Everything appears & dissapears, but the source is the same emptiness, the immense void. And the whole is hidden in that emptiness which by its nature can not have a name, a shape, an adjective...In this sense self-nature, like everything else, has two states, the manifest & the unmanifest. While the manifest has name & form, attributes, the unmanifest has none whatsoever...The day the manifest & the unmanifest meet & merge into each other, the ultimate truth comes into being"

All & nothing mean the same.
Many if not all spiritual minded people wish to become one with the all, so expand they're egos into a spiritual ego that believes itself one with the all.
They are creating they're own fantasy reality based on the words of the wise sages.
The sages say desirelessness is liberation, so the spiritual ego desires desirelessness.
The sages say this world is an illusion, so the spiritual ego cultivates an illusionary world.
The sages say all of existence is one, so the spiritual ego cultivates a vision of oneness, seemingly becoming one with all things.
This is false, a false delusional reality, even more delusional than the waking reality of daily human life.
Only through becoming nothing can you become one with the all, when you become nothing ego is destroyed, resulting in becoming one with the all, you can not expand yourself to the all as this is the ego's wishes! When you expand ego you will find it will come crashing back into misery everytime.
You must become empty, nothing, then the all is you.
When "you" are not, nothing is.
When "you" are not, all is!
Emptiness is the only way to awaken, to be utterly empty, to become nothing, and have the courage to rest as this. No matter how disturbing your ego kicks up the dust of the mind, remain as emptiness, just try it, become empty for one hour, read a chapter of a book empty, watch a film empty, eat in emptiness, drink a cup of water empty, sleep in emptiness...
See how everything comes to life in this emptiness, how all flavours are savoured to the last drop.
When your in the cinema watching the big screen, your in the film so much because you forget "you", you become empty, you become engrossed in the film.
Engross yourself in life.

The courage to be empty is all that is necessary to practice, the courage to remain without beliefs, concepts, truth. Whatever fruity juicy tasty insights occur, the courage to throw it away is the ultimate freedom.
This is it.
All that is, beyond all that is.

"Stay only as ‘I am’; stay only as awareness; stay only as emptiness. Keep your mind in neutral. It’s enough. It is enough. This is it.
This is it beyond the saying it is it. What I have told you is all you need to know. It’s all you need to hear. Yet I will say it again and again. It is the soap that washes off all the impressions. Because all the impressions from the place of the true you, they are untrue. It will leave you as the ‘you without you’. Be this you-less you. Stay as this. This is the glorious, stateless state. The Absolute. Here you have met and dissolved in your Buddha nature, in Christ consciousness, in Krishna consciousness. Here you are one with yourself. You’ve heard people say ‘one love’; this oneness is love. Stay as love. Rest in love."
