In the heart of Emptiness there is a mysterious impulse, mysterious because there is actually nothing in the heart of Emptiness (for there is nothing in Emptiness, period). Yet there it is, this mysterious impulse, the impulse to…create. To sing, to shine, to radiate; to send forth, reach out and celebrate; to sing and shout and walk about; to effervesce and bubble over, this mysterious exuberance in the heart of Emptiness.
Emptiness empties itself of emptiness, and thus becomes Full, pregnant with all worlds, a fruition of the infinite impulse to play, hidden in the heart of your own deepest Self. If you rest in the Witness, settle back as I-I, and look very carefully for the Looker – if you turn within right now and try to see the Seer – you won’t see anything at all, for you cannot see the Seer. All you will find is a vast Freedom and Emptiness, in which the entire Kosmos is now arising. Out of the pure Emptiness that is your deepest suchness, all worlds arise. Your own impulse of looking has brought forth the universe, and here it resides in the vastness of all space which is to say, in the purity of your own primordial awareness. This has been obvious all along; this you have known all along. Just this, and nothing more, just this.

I’ve seen a lot of these types of graphics lately. They are always met with a chuckle. I don’t know if climate change is completely all made up and/or false – it could be very real; just not as bad…yet. They [climate change folks] did themselves a huge disservice by fabricating data because it didn’t suit their severity levels or immediacy. Because of all the hype for and against climate change it is hard to sometime understand where we are actually at as a planet. These fluctuations of extremes may very well be part of the natural ebb and flow of climate cycles, but lets not pretend for a minute that polluting our environment is ok. Balance needs to be found for this equation. An equation that should not depend on huge faceless corporations or government agency heads (that are formerly faceless corporation CEOs). I understand the bottom line is often $, but I will also say that it doesn’t necessarily have to be. At some point we will need to take a hard look at what saving $.20/gal at the pump really means short and long term. I don’t have any answers either, I just feel strongly that there is something to be done here; what, exactly, remains to be seen. There are brilliant minds everywhere; I wish someone would figure out a solution for the good of all and not for the money-grubbin’ few that retreat behind cooperate legal crap when it hits the fan. -end rant. I am not a crazy liberal or a right wing nut – I am just an average person that it tired of all the crap.
Thanks Dan. Good rant!
