Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 There comes a point where the mind is unperturbed. The mind is unperturbed because it is " quiet " . This " quiet " does not mean " no thoughts " . Rather the quiet of the unperturbed mind is a stillness that pervades everything, including thought when it arises. How the " unperturbed state " obtains is not clear. One may say it simply happens. What is clear is this: When the unperturbed state obtains all wondering about the fundamental nature of reality has ended. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
