Mike, Zen doesn't really give a shit about all the what's and why's (especially the why's) of all this either.
The only thing I can really state with confidence is the experience of Buddha Nature is empty. No forms. It just seems to me that forms only reappear when my intellect kicks back in. That's why I believe forms are a product of my intellect, but the only think I'm sure of is Buddha Nature contains no forms. ...Bill! --- In [email protected], uerusuboyo@... wrote: > > Bill!,<br/><br/>In vipassana (and Buddhism) we don't have to worry about > externals and what reality is made of (sounds too metaphysical to me) because > the important thing is how we react within our bodies-mind.
