Even saying "only in deep silence do we leave concepts behind" is conceptual. Even that concept will be left behind, even the idea of "deep silence" will be gone. Everything that involves an inside and outside, formed perceptions such as sound or sight, is conceptual. Anything involving a body or mind is conceptual. This, then, is the crux of the matter, so to speak. Anything said is just concepts. Anything done just doing. Sense experience is just sense experience. Point all you want, it's just pointing, just conceptual, after all. Love, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
