Three Impossible Questions

How is the universe infinite?
Where did consciousness come from?
Why does formula work?

These three principles are the three unchanging elements of life. Most people ignore them, while some actually use them to confuse humanity, and others, to denounce Buddhism.

The only relative answer to these question is; it just is. Ultimately, there may be an answer when enlightened, but we have to do the work to find out. To try and answer them without understanding through inner practice of looking into our mind and realising the consciousness doing this looking, we only end up confused and antagonistic. The world around us does not promote inner enquiry, only external confusion.

This is a stupid pursuit.

In meditation everything melts into emptiness where we become one with infinity, consciousness, and the wisdom of formula.

Formula: from Latin, diminutive of forma ‘shape, mould’.
The mould that holds us together in a state of confusion is desire, fear and ignorance/indifference . This attachment prevents us from realising our true reality.

The stupid rely on desire, fear and ignorance/indifference, constantly relating to everything, and holding it all together en masse. On an ultimate level, the three negative emotions of desire, fear and ignorance/indifference are actually wisdoms.

We break the mould by realising the essence of formula, which is empty, compassionate cognisance (for more detail, search this blog for the correlation).

These three qualities are still formulae: in Sanskrit, they are dharmakaya, sambhogakaya and nirmanakaya.
