The Three Causes Of The Known Universe
We all know them:
Positive, negative and neutral.
Attraction, repulsion and inertia.
Desire, aversion and indifference.
The three poisons obscuring spiritual realisation.
The Three Causes of the Knowing Universe
Emptiness, cognisance, compassion.
The three wisdoms to spiritual realisation.
The correlation
Desire = Emptiness
Aversion = Awareness
Ignorance = Compassion
When we forget emptiness, desire fills emptiness with concepts.
When we forget awareness, aversion arises as we start judging.
When we forget compassion, ignorance becomes indifferent to others.
It’s so simple … but a lot to take in.
