The Opening and Closing Meditation on the Truth of Reality, Identity and Existence.
- 'understanding the human condition and the nature of existence.' -
All is impersonal.
Nothing belongs to you and nothing belongs to me.
All is empty of yours, mine, ours and me.
Things are never really yours and things are never really mine.
They were never really yours and they were never really mine.
This is the 'emptiness' of all things.
Body, form, feelings, touch, sense organs, skin, hair, blood, sinews, breath.
Nose, ears, eyes, mouth, tongue, body, mind, moods, feelings, emotions.
Heat, cold, wet, dry, tight, loose, strong, weak, quick, slow, smooth, rough, soft, hard.
These things are never really yours and they are never really mine.
Nothing belongs to you and nothing belongs to me.
Touch, hearing, seeing, feeling, sights, sounds, taste, smell, senses, thinking, cognition, thought.
Youth, vigour, attraction, growth, health, adulthood, fatigue, sickness, decay, old age.
Pleasure, pain, passion, lust, repulsion, craving, obsession, disdain, love, hate, desire.
All these so-called things are never really yours and they are never really mine.
Nothing here is really yours and nothing here is really mine.
All is impersonal.
Mind, thoughts, thinking, mental formations, impressions, images, emotions, moods.
Ideas, views, opinions, beliefs, appearances, concepts, preferences, conclusions.
Dreams, memories, visions, wants, desires, impulses, urges, hopes, fears.
Mind-consciousness, intellect, cognition, awareness, knowledge, behaviour.
All these so-called things are never yours and they are never mine.
They do not belong to you and they do not belong to me.
Nothing here is really yours and nothing here is really mine.
It all belongs to no one.
It is all impersonal.
This is the 'emptiness' of all things.
Nothing belongs to you and nothing belongs to me.
It never really belonged to you and it never really belonged to me.
It is all empty of me, yours, ours and mine.
These so-called things are never really yours and they are never really mine.
They were never yours and they were never mine.
This is the 'emptiness' of all things.
Possessions, sense objects, forms, creations, phenomena, constructs, the world, existence.
Money, fame, wealth, status, position, power, name, titles, so-called others.
Gains, losses, success, failure, rewards, disappointments, achievements, rules, wins.
These things are never really yours and these things are never really mine.
Family, friends, fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, sisters, brothers, ancestors.
Lovers, partners, acquaintances, fantasies, brief encounters, those imagined, those forgotten.
Teachers, gurus, leaders, followers, new, old, ancient.
It is all impersonal.
It all belongs to no one.
Beginnings, endings.
Hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, lifetimes.
Today, yesterday, tomorrow, the present, the past, the future.
Time, space, existence, worlds, realms, borders, dimensions.
Above, below, inside, outside, near, far, wide, high, low.

This is the 'emptiness' of all things.
Oceans, land, skies, sun, moon, space, stars, the universe, galaxies.
North, south, east, west, all directions, dawn, dust.
The elements, water, air, fire, earth, light, ether, darkness.
Creation, destruction, creatures, animals, countries, humans, angels, gods.
Forms, situations, circumstances, conditions, contradictions, expressions, dramas.
Impermanent and empty are all these so-called things.
Nothing really belongs to you and nothing really belongs to me.
Nothing is yours and nothing is mine.
It is all empty of yours, mine, ours and me.
It all belongs to no one.
It is only the mistaken assumption, belief and view of a fooled and deluded mind.
It is only ignorance that makes us think that these so-called things and appearances are yours or mine.
It is all transitory and impermanent.
It is all empty of yours, mine, ours and me.
It is all impersonal.
It all belongs to no one.
All things, constructs and appearances are marked and conditioned by impermanence.
This is the 'emptiness' and nature of all so-called things and forms
It is only ignorance that makes us think that these so-called things and appearances are yours or mine.
Nothing belongs to you and nothing belongs to me.
It is all 'emptiness'.
Only 'emptiness'.
And this enduring 'emptiness' is our free, eternal and boundless nature and identity.
This is the true nature of reality, identity and existence.
Only 'emptiness' alone is.
Only this 'emptiness' is real and permanent.
All else is illusion.
Only this 'emptiness' endures.
Only this 'emptiness' is real.
All else is impermanent and unreal - only this enduring 'emptiness' is eternal.
This 'emptiness' alone is and all is this 'emptiness'.
You, yours, ours, mine and me.
Absolute!
All things appear in 'emptiness', are made of 'emptiness' and are born in 'emptiness'.
Are sustained in 'emptiness', remain in 'emptiness', never leaving 'emptiness'.
All things die in 'emptiness', return to 'emptiness' and are lost to 'emptiness'.
Dying to 'emptiness', having never left 'emptiness' and having always been 'emptiness'.
This 'emptiness' alone is.
This 'emptiness' is the source and essence of all things.
All things are this 'emptiness'.
Forms and appearances come and go.
Births and deaths come and go.
Beginnings and ends come and go.
Constructs come and go.
Moments come and go.
Lifetimes come and go.
Worlds come and go.
And yet this 'emptiness' remains as it is.
Free, ever-present, immaculate and limitless.
All is this one supreme 'emptiness'.
This enduring, inexhaustible and ever-present 'emptiness' alone is.
This is the true nature of reality, identity and existence.
All is impersonal.
Nothing belongs to you and nothing belongs to me.
All is empty of yours, mine, ours and me.
Silence!
This esoteric blog is dedicated to my earthly mother 'Rita' who transitioned on the 12th December 2021. A truly selfless, kind, beautiful, spiritual and loving embodied soul, friend, teacher and mother.
"Here am I by the power and grace of God alone. Forever am I at God's mercy should I live, prosper or die. Only with God's inexhaustible and on-going grace do we all exist and have existence and yet foolishly this is so easily forgotten, ignored and abused by clouded and fooled minds.
'This enduring and ever-present 'emptiness' that I speak of and point to is the one true father and mother of all things, creations, appearances and forms - the Giver, the Receiver and the one true Preserver.
We all only exist and have existence because of God's on-going grace alone. This ever-present 'emptiness' is the one inexhaustible source and essence of all things, creations, appearances, expressions and forms.
All constructs and appearances exist by the grace of God alone.
They were never yours and they are never mine. To live, to prosper, to die, these were never yours or mine.
It is this enduring 'emptiness' that unites and binds us all. It is the one true source and essence of all things and creations. Only this highest knowledge on the truth of Reality, Identity and Existence alone can set us free of all that separates, harms, limits and divides us.
Regardless of an individual's appearance, choices behaviour, actions, beliefs, religion, opinions, atheism, views, status, position, role, needs, wants, demands, expectations, their individual worldly persona and social and cultural preferences, principles and standards we are all of one boundless, inexhaustible, immaculate and ever-present source and essence - Absolute!
Only this Self-knowledge of oneness alone can fully unite us in the respect and love of our differences."
Peace!
Song of the Deathless Yogi:
I am 'emptiness'. All is 'emptiness'. 'Emptiness' is all.
Form is 'emptiness'. Only 'emptiness'. 'Emptiness' is form'.
Here ends this spiritual communication.
