Guest guest Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 I have been asked elsewhere for my definition of Emptiness. After some struggle with that I took a short nap, and as I awoke, in the offing, seemed to find the answer. Perhaps my friends here can help me evaluate this...... Emptiness is absence of any frame of reference or point of view. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sages speak of the absence of the absence....which for me hints at the emptiness that eludes the mind's ability to think of nothing. toombaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
