"All that appears as the world is dependent on you to validate its existence, and this can only happen if you have taken it to be true that you have an independent existence." ~Jac O'Keeffe
There is a state where there is neither earth, nor water, nor heat, nor air; neither infinity of space nor infinity of consciousness, nor nothingness, nor perception nor non-perception; neither this world nor that world, neither sun nor moon. It is the uncreate. That I term neither coming nor going nor standing; neither death nor birth. It is without stability, without change; it is the eternal which never originates and never passes away. There is the end of sorrow. ~ THE BUDDHA
