Another way of looking at it. If we add ink to the water, the water will take the color of the ink. If its red, the water will become red, if its black, the water will become black. However, the essence of the water will always be transparent. A mirror will always reflect whatever you put infornt of it. The background/the container/the voidness will take what ever matrix of experience you through in it. If you decide to reply to any of my posts, then have a look at the empty box. It will take whatever you type in it, and you also have the option of editing your post later on. The essence of the box will always be empty. The Buddha called it a path, and it leads to whatever you are doing or stopping yourself from doing in the here and now. When you are thinking, you are there, and when you stop yourself from think you are also there. If someone ask me: do you experience it bundokji? then in order to reply, i have to type on the same empty box again!
