The Unity Of Emptiness And Illusions

As long as we’re aware, we can discern the nuances of perception. If we look quickly to the left or right – and before identifying with whatever is seen – there is just empty awareness for a split second. Nothing’s going on, and no judgements are being made.

In the next milli-moment, we notice that we’ve conjured up a story about everything the eyes have rested on, and then emptiness – pure consciousness – is forgotten. We’ve overlooked what we are.

The stories we tell about whatever is seen are the projected illusions we carry around with us. The more familiar we become with this process, the more the illusions remind us of our reality.

Empty cognisance is our reality of pure consciousness.
The universe is complete in opposites – everything is the teacher.
