The Beauty of Nothingness: Contemplating the Vanishing Breath

The Beauty of Nothingness: Contemplating the Vanishing Breath

So if you really go the whole way and see how you feel at the prospect of vanishing breath. Of all your efforts and all your achievements and all your attainments turning into dust, nothingness...

What is the feeling? What happens to you?

For some reason or other we're supposed to find this depression. Do you see in a way now that is saying, the most real state is the state of nothing. But if somebody is going to argue that the basic reality is nothingness, where does all this come from..obviously from nothing. Once again you get how it looks behind your eyes.

Embracing the Fundamental Reality of Nothingness

Embracing the Fundamental Reality of Nothingness

So in this way by seeing that nothingness is the fundamental reality and you see it's your reality, then how can anything contaminate.

All the idea of your being scared and put out and worried and so on it's just nothing. It's a dream. Because you're real enough but this is the most incredible nothing. So cheer up you see the essence of your mind is intrinsically pure, clear, void.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
