Consider movement stationary and the stationary in motion, both movement and

rest disappear. When such dualities cease to exist Oneness itself cannot

exist. To this ultimate finality no law or description applies. For the

unified mind in accord with the Way all self-centered striving ceases.

Doubts and irresolution's vanish and life in true faith is possible. With a

single stroke we are freed from bondage; nothing clings to us and we hold to

nothing. All is empty, clear, self-illuminating, with no exertion of the

mind's power. Here thought, feeling, knowledge, and imagination are of no

value. In this world of Suchness there is neither self nor other-than-self.

 

Smiles, Robert
