Highest Truth : Nothingless :(

There seem to be some misalignment in our understanding on nothingness, my dear ah sou...

This notion of anatman isn't nothingness or void in the general sense. It does not negate the presence of this physical and/or psychological self.

It is the fundamental understanding that "I" exists, as well as other physical and/or metaphysical manifestation even at the quantum level, and at the same time understanding this "past/present/future I" is fundamentally dynamic and impermanent.

Understanding this impermanence nature in every manifestation of any physical construct, it leads to the termination of suffering. This is the level of my understanding on the notion of "nothingness".

Very deep . Let me read it over again a few more times.

After seeing so many India Indians steal jobs, dirty and smelly may have reservation of considering Buddha-ah neh-ism.

That smelly and dirty ah neh sitting under a banyan tree for rest of his life their ah nehs made him god

Lazy, dont bathe, and hungry go beg for food better to write him off as yr god.

And he stated the obvious things of life which everyone's knew.

Most of them think they are Buddhists, but they are not, they are Taoists & they worship multiple gods. Buddhism is a way of life, not a religion.

Good Morning
*************
Quote : " Form Is Empty - Emptiness Is Form "

This quote is from the Heart Sutra: where translated, it means all manifestations of matter (form) is emptiness, where this emptiness is synonymous to nothingness as per described earlier. If you dwell deeper, you'll just notice you and I are merely illustrious constructs of atoms and molecules; beyond these atoms and molecules are just empty spaces where electrons supposedly interact with one another. These interactions go on far before we were born and far beyond after our deaths. Is there a permanent "I" or physical construct?
