...in our true essence is known that everything
is alright forever and ever...
is alright forever and ever...
It is all one awakened thing. I call it the
Golden Eternity.
Golden Eternity.
It has nothing to do with the imaginary idea of a
personal self, other selves, many selves everywhere:
self is only an idea, a mortal idea. That which passes
into everything is one thing. It's a dream already ended.
There's nothing to be afraid of. I know this from staring
at mountains months on end. They never show any expression,
they are like empty space. Do you think the emptiness of space
will ever crumble away? Mountains will crumble away, but
the emptiness of space, which is the one universal essence of mind,
the vastness, empty and awake, will never crumble away...
