Don't know if this is poetry... just gotta get it out
This sudden whisper inside
"NOTHING doesn't exist
NOTHING can't exist"
What I've been looking for
does not exist
The longing towards something
turns out to be
an arrival at nothing
The nothingness IS
it definitely does not exist
What exists will change
here only for a moment, touchable
then gone
What is No-thing can not change
emptiness can't be touched
yet always here
Nothingness does not even carry ideas
to manifest
Ideas come from intelligence
and manifest in existence
Non-form mirroring form
Beyond both form and non-form is...
Nothing
Absolutely nothing
Like a fool
I have been looking desperately
for something that doesn't exist
I see now a journey
from something
to nothing
I just foolishly thought
I was looking for
something, something ELSE than the ordinary
I thought I knew something...
Now I know...
nothing!
I know nothing!
The nothingness
in every-thing
What is there to know?
Absolutely nothing

Definately poetry to my eyes and ears 
It reminds me of the word Genesis, which has been said to mean "out of nothing - something"
So you could say Genesis - no-Genesis, if you were that way inclined
quote:
Nothingness does not even carry ideas
to manifest
Ideas come from intelligence
and manifest in existence
Non-form mirroring form
Intrigued about this.

| That part was a bit awkward to write, Louis... Perhaps a bit of mind junk that came and distorted the whole thing... or perhaps a premature thing coming out without being anchored in the gut... Don't know... don't know nothing.... |

The eyes look at things
watches
gazes
at the scenery
The inner eye looks at things
colours
patterns
symbols
enjoys the scenery
The mind wants to visualize
everything
imagine
what things look like
Imagine
a big black void
Imagine
eternal bright light
beautiful scenery
The mind
can not
visualize
nothing
Helplessly out of order
when trying to make a
picture of
nothing
It's not a feeling
It's not a sensation
It's not a perception
It's not even a touch
It's none of that
Nothing
There's no I
There's no me
There's no... one there
to watch
anylonger
There's nothing to watch
There's nothing to be aware of
ultimate relaxation
awareness suddenly seems
like a very busy
thing
something going on
when
there's
nothing
going
on

Nothingness when viewed by the mind seems awful, the most dreadful thing to fear from, a black hole. That's why humanity is so agitated, so occupied with doing and excitements and addictions. Just to fill the nothingness hole perceived by the common mind as hell.
Nothingness when viewed beyond the mind, is the most serene place to be, the prime gateway to enlightenment. |

Yogani, lesson 333
"Emptiness/void is awareness with no objects. Nothing to be aware of. Pure potential, beyond all that exists. The source of all."
Thank you, Yogani! Thank you. |
