The Mind is like atmosphere which contains all possible thoughts-wave, like vast empty space that contains all radio waves.
Which a radio is not tuned to a particular channel, all channels of wide spectrum is available, as white noise.
Thinking is just noise-making inside our head.
Yet some noise, natural noise, like river flowing, is far more interesting than human thoughts.
You will never be bored listening to a river streaming, to winds blowing, to autumn leaves falling ... which are just WONDERFUL to listen.
In wonder, everything is ONE, the whole universe is one, in a sense of all-pervading unity.
In wonder, in the absence of ';me';, every sound is Universal sound.
In wonder, you don';t hear the sound, you ARE the sound.
Enlightenment is just that simple -the final erase of all sense of separation.
Just like a rope is mistaken as snake, so you are mistaken as the world.
The difference between reality and illusion is quite simple:
When the world is seen AS you, that is reality.
When the world is seen apart from you, that is illusion.
In another words, illusory is the sense of separation, only.
真如法界 無自無它 一即一切 一切即一
