Morning meditation
‘Because there is no origination there is no duration and no destruction.’
Nagarjuna

“Through what is emptiness known? It is known through seeing dependent-arising. Buddha, the supreme knower of reality, said what is dependently produced is not inherently produced.”

#nagarjuna #emptiness

Everything is dependently originated;
Everything is empty.

#nagarjuna #sunyata #emptiness

That which originates dependently
Does not cease and does not arise,
Does not come and does not go,
Is not annihilated and is not permanent,
Is not different and not the same.

To the true teacher who reveals this peace,
The complete pacification of constructs,
To the perfect Buddha I bow down.

What is inside is me,
What is outside is mine -
When these thoughts end,
Compulsion stops,
Repetition ceases,
Freedom dawns.

#nagarjuna #nirvana

When things dissolve,
There's nothing left to say.
The unborn and unceasing
Are already free.

#nagarjuna #buddhism

You are not the same as or different from
Conditions on which you depend;
You are neither severed from
Nor forever fused with them -

This is the deathless teaching
Of buddhas who care for the world.

When emptiness is possible,
Everything is possible;
Were emptiness impossible,
Nothing would be possible.

Without relying on conventions,
You cannot disclose the sublime;
Without intuiting the sublime,
You cannot experience freedom.

Buddhist insights: It is in the Nature of Emptiness.
By Arya Nagarjuna.

#Nagarjuna #Buddhism #Mahayana

The central concept around which all of Nāgārjuna’s philosophy is built is the notion of emptiness (śūnyatā). Emptiness is of course always the emptiness of something, and the something Nāgārjuna has in mind here is svabhāva. Different terms have been used to translate this word into English: “inherent existence” and “intrinsic nature” appear to be the more popular choices, but “substance” and “essence” have also been proposed.

Dependent origination is emptiness
Which, dependently configured,
Is the middle way.

@daxwerner Ein überraschender Gedanke: Twitter als Nicht-Ich? Eine charmante Bezeichnung für eine Sammlung von Hyper-Ichs. Ich frage mich, wie #Nagarjuna das einordnen würde.

Conclusion du plus impressionnant chapitre de Helgoland de Carlo #Rovelli (sur l'interprétation de la #physique #quantique), découverte de #Nagarjuna. Je crois que cela bouleversera durablement certaines de mes conceptions en #philosophie
