Roots of Wisdom - Emptiness of Phenomena

 


The water flows but no turbulence is there.

From this one learns the meaning of seeing peace in the midst of tumult.

The mountains are high but the clouds are unobstructed.

From this one awakes to the chance of passing from existence to non-existence.


If the mind is silent, it is completely uninfluenced by anything and yet it is part of everything.  The individual is then one with everything and there is the state of no-self.
