What is emptiness?

3 posts in this topic

If emptiness is formless and us.

The our conciousness is God? 

God is emptiness.

So the empty conciousness we percieved as mind concious is only that way because our thoughts cloud concious being.

So that means the background silence before thoughts is God and Conciousness and emptienss prior to form.

Is this correct or false?

Thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

First be aware that emptiness is a thought.

Second the notion of emptiness is part of a duality with Form being an opposing aspect. As such emptiness and form are really one and indistinguishable. One needs the other, one is the other, one is not prior to the other. You can't grasp this with thought, but you are actually living it right now.

But you can get a flavour of the emptiness by trying to 'capture' the present moment. However hard you try it keeps changing and slipping away; there's nothing to grab hold of. There's nothing there, it's empty.

@Anton_Pierre

Emptiness is not separate from Everything.

God is not separate from Creation.

Formless = Form

Try going meta on your question and then ask: what is what? What are we aiming for when we ask "what is" something?

It's always a theory/thought, not the truth.
