3 Release Wisdom
1. All the appearance is empty
It’s like something appear in front of your eyes but because your eyes have some type of illness it makes you see the illusion, so it appears but truly it’s not there. If your heart does not take them serious you will feel free from them.
2. All the appearance form has no form
First one talks about all the appearance essence is empty. Because if it has some essence that will not move and change, it will stay always the same. Because the essence is empty the appearance can continue to change. Because the essence of life is empty, emptiness has no boundary, so aware of that essence is right away free – no boundary.
Second point talks about all the appearing form is constantly changing illusion has no form. Because this form will change to the other form. So every form will disappear. Because every form will disappear and every form comes from others – essence is empty – so all the form is no form. And because all the form is no form, you’re chasing heart which create possessive habit will disappear.
Comes from others and will disappear to others, essence is empty, so all the form is no form.
3. All the appearance has no I
All the action comes from causation, because it comes from causation there is no I.
Causation is everything comes from others. Like 3 Eternal Dharma Truths, the first two parts explain causation. All the appearing forms come from the other, so if all the appearance action comes from causation that means everything comes from the other. So right away in each causation there is no I.
So from the essence it’s empty, from the appearing form it is empty and from the action there is no I. When you understand all three then you understand the three releasing gates wisdom. Understand either one will help you understand the other two.
There is nothing that can have essence, that’s why we can make it smaller and smaller until it’s finally empty. If there is some essence it will stay that look and not even change. All the form is constantly changing and comes from the other so there is no form. All the action comes from causation, many cause, so they have no self.
Individual action comes from many cause, so that individual action cannot have any I, has to come from many I.
You grow up until now, how much food have you eat, that’s how many I into you. The sunlight, wind, water and before your body appear your parents, grandparents, think about that connection how many causation behind. From there you don’t find your real individual I at all.
Empty, no form, no I. So the world even although it appears with form, appear looks like not empty and everything has a different kind of action to look like they are all real, in fact it’s the way to teach you how the illusion works. The illusion is not totally not there, as it appears as though it has a real form, real essence and act like there is a real I. But that is the trick of life, you go deeper you will right away know either one is trying to teach you that: essence is empty, form is illusion and action has no I.
