The real nature
Dear Volker, hope you are doing great!
What is the real nature of all phenomena, thoughts, I, body and mind
You said i really wish to have nothing on my mind…
Sorry that is not the nature or source of our real happiness.
Emptiness is not having nothing on our mind. Emptiness is to understand the real, the ultimate nature of everything.
And what’s that? Where is it?
Budha said: the ultimate nature of all phenomena and persons is the emptiness.
So what is it then?
Emptiness is the understanding that everything lack of self-existence even our mind and thoughts are lacking of self-existence or inherente existence.
Everything is create from the results of causes and conditions in accord to our Karma and wisdom.
Our mind, our body, our I, our life, our problems, sufferings, pains, happiness are the results of a rippened Karma, that we have gathered together in past lifes or in the earlier of this life.
In this way we can ask ourselves, where is the beggining or the ending of that? When did I start? I konw my body in this present life starts to exist when my mum and dad had a sex intercourse, but i can not say exactly when my mind, feelings and thoughts started exactly to exist.
Has it started when i was a just single cel or 2, or 4, or 8 or the morula? When i start to attach my mind to my body? Are they different? Are they individual? Or are they one, in the way one need to another to exist?
Emptiness is the understanding of all this things, is the understanding of how connected we are to the universe and where this universe exists? Where is it? What is it? A convencional name? A mere name?
Day by day it has been discorvered differents aspects of it, bigger – smaller, atoms – giants, longer, deeper, higher…I cannot find the right answer. The scientists are creating a wonderful huge machine to try to find the answer, but eventhough the answer by itself will not be enough, it needs some minds and people belienving in it, otherwise the answer it will continue to be a path, a brigde for the next question and its answers.
We must understand emptiness because is onle their we can find the answer.
To find ourselves we need to go deeper inside of ourselves, like a cirurgian cutting and cutting our body in smaller and smaller pieces…chemistries and phisicians go to end (that they believe on it) they go to the atoms, protons, eletrons, neutrons and so forth getting smaller and smaller of some spacelike energy and when they arrived farther they said that smallest part is a probability to find some part of an energy….and then they come back saying that all phenomena and persons are those energies gather together, its colletive.
So you are at the same time the beggining and the end and in this gap we generate our lifes, our bodies, minds, thoughts and soever.
What do you think about it?
