The Nature Of Mind And The Essence Of Mind

This can be confusing.

The essence of mind is ethereal pure consciousness; it’s what we are.
The nature of mind is the construct of thoughts held within essence.

It’s like this empty, white screen (essence – empty awareness) with words on it (nature – whatever’s constructed).

Our reality is uncontaminated cognisant emptiness.
Our self is the sum of all the thoughts that we’ve collected which have no reality.

The point is that emptiness is our reality, while thoughts are an adoption inherited from our society. These thoughts are acquired memories; they’re not our own.

Once we realise what we are, we can then use these thoughts or words to point in the direction of our reality. Or at least we can try 🙂
