Amazing True-Self Free Being – Function of Emptiness.

The Heart Sutra talks about the word emptiness. Emptiness helps us develop freedom in two sides – another name for this is called Middle Way or No-Two Meditation.

First side: Empty not stuck lost in Illusion Being suffering for nothing.

In illusion Being there is nothing we can get, but we get lost from our blind habits of desire, passion, action, emotion, thinking, intuition, hidden consciousness (blind experience from past life) anyway.

So we practice being empty as pure, wise heart by see through all illusions to hold nothing and then nothing can hold us as well.

Function of Emptiness

We can practice pure heart, empty-being by practicing Back to Essence techniques such as:

– share time with spiritual people;
– share generosity and wisdom;
– acupuncture / massage / stretching / tension-release systems;
– moving meditation systems: Qi Gong, Tai Chi, spiritual philosophy style Martial Art; and
– observing self-being and life meditation.

Then we naturally feel empty and free to observe illusion being from the wise function:
Learning life and enjoy life, develop wisdom and compassion.

Second side: Not stuck in Empty either.

So if we are possessive to empty, already it is not empty.

As well, it is a fear of being lost by Illusion Being from past experience, present situation and future possibility.

Also, it is an escape psychology, try to run away from the test of life. But not able to aware you are falling into a new type of jail and new type of suffering.

Another negative psychology is – want to be empty caused by laziness – not to be bothered by any connection (except food 🙂 Put your hand up if you have this blind habit.

But sometimes, some consciousness need to pass through this stage, no connection to all the illusion Being, so able to concentrate to read philosophy: monks and nuns system is so. Because it is so, this new jail is suffering, but there are philosophy books in this jail. This is called Rohan System.

Bodhisattva don’t learn this system. Bodhisattva directly learn philosophy books by connecting to all the illusion being meanwhile practice philosophy, purify their own heart and others. Which is what Heart Sutra is teaching

So possessive to be empty therefore we truly don’t develop anything. Just living in a shell of fear to block all the connection to Illusion Being. Except Rohan System, in this possessive emptiness zone they still develop mental Buddhism philosophy to see through all Illusion by mind.

Summary: So there are two kinds of possessive towards empty.

1. Pure fear, escape psychology or laziness;
2. Also comes from fear, but still has willing heart to develop wisdom.

True empty there is no blockage, nothing can be stuck in it. So searching for emptiness and want to stay in emptiness are just another kind of blind ego.

Empty space allows all the galaxies to twist and through that all life can appear. Empty Pure wise heart allows Four Eternal Heart to grow so unlimited compassion and wisdom will develop.

Internal Pure Land can appear and become External Pure Land.

Then one day we can become Buddha, no beginning, no end, help every life out of suffering reach Nirvana, experience Unlimited Dharma Joy – like every Buddha does. Which is the final principle of Heart Sutra.

So not trapped in either one but not also limited in either one. Amazing True-Self Free Being.

Summary:

True wise emptiness has no Fear, no Personal, no Drama , no Issues

But is able to observe self-being of all life and through that develop unlimited wisdom and compassion.
