Astonishment

All the saints and sages say

“Liberation is available when you realise

true Emptiness of Being.”

.

Emptiness is:

“Having Nothing,

Knowing Nothing,

Being No-one.” *

.

In Emptiness

all that is left

is a rapt state of silent wonder.

.

Silence brim-full with Is-ness.

Nothing is already known.

All is brand new, ever fresh,

bright as a new pin,

sparkling with pristine potential.

.

Rest in the flow of unfolding,

forever lost in astonishment.

.

  • from the early teachings of A. Cohen
