Is there anything more beautiful in this world of ours than a deep blue, almost clear sky, with traces of white puffy cloud? How indescribable is the depth of that ‘blueness’ …. seen in mind, in the present, with full awareness?
Sky’s vast openness perfectly mirrors the nature of mind … open and unlimited, vivid and clear, yet utterly ungraspable.
What joy at seeing such beautiful appearances, and being reminded of what runs through all appearances …
How blessed!
perfectly mirrors the nature of mind
Note: I don’t mean to say ‘perfect’ in a way that suggests ‘exactly’. Sky does not have the luminous clarity of wakefulness that is the fundamental nature of our mind. But it does ‘perfectly’ point to the vast, open emptiness aspect which we label ’emptiness’.
