Emptiness is not nothing,
on the contrary,
it is everything.
Emptiness is the absence of focus on anything,
The impossibility of stopping to make a template out of anything,
as long as the gaze is drawn to the whole.
Like any teaching, emptiness is not a concept.
Moreover, as such, it is incomprehensible,
Emptiness is a teaching that deals with interiority and must be apprehended in the silence of inner practice.
What is empty?
Empty of what?
What is actually full of everything?
Emptiness is the door to space.
Towards the welcome,
Towards God,
Emptiness is the opposite of sharp attention,
It is all sharp attentions and none at the same time.
It is the voice that suddenly falls silent.
Emptiness is where you let yourself speech that suddenly disappears,
Emptiness is « the ocean of divine love ».

Then, the dissolution of self in unity with all.

That is a catchy motto on the spiritual stall.
Many fall for it.
I’ve grown suspicious of dissolution formulae…

It’s not my own outlook, particularly, but what I thought you were saying.

I have no idea what I meant…at that moment of writing these lines.
but the more I age,
and I do age a lot these days,
the less I can relate to those new-age-ish, nirvana-twisted discourse.
I may be wrong.
statistically, I often am.

Ah – you are starting to relate to the old-age-ish stuff instead. I got there some years ago…!
