How to fill the void

[Dodo]

The only way to fill the void is to realize that you ARE the void. Also eating an apple. Discuss

[Preetom]

When all else is said and done, just sit down and explore the void  

[Shin]

But the void is scary man ?

[Dodo]

Do you sense how fresh this dream is? This dream is just beginning. This dream is new. The present moment is always 100% new and fresh. I look around the room, look at my hand and I realise. I'm Here. Now.

Try finding or remembering or imagining something that is NOT here and now

What is it that is scared? Is the sensation of fear itself scared? How can that be?

Go to your earliest memories and within those all you'll find love and trust, there start refilling that empty bucket

You colour the Void any way you wish. If you wish to colour it 'scary' that will make it scary. If you colour it 'Me', you can only see it as a fresh blank ever present canvas on which you can Be.

Dont aVOID the VOID! Swim into yourself! You cant escape! EnjOI!

People assume Consciousness is a container that contains stuff.  But see that’s clinging to a Thought about reality.  To me, instead of thinking of myself as the void, I think of myself as Awareness of what’s actual vs. the illusions of Maya a.k.a. the illusions of Thought and Experience.

That's still an identification.

Who is people? Ive never met people. Is he a nice guy?

self loves to identify with the things of thought. Imitation is its thing. This is also escaping what is/fear. Food for self.

Don’t fill the void, stay empty dudes. Only self wants to fill/identify/depend/resist the emptiness of change.

@Joseph Maynor Either of these contrasts can be transcended as a natural part of awakening on your path. Those are still an identification. It's all is the massive, cosmic joke around me......
