And in that entire picture,
there is no "one" doing anything whatsoever.
Which is what Buddha prattled some 3, 000 years back.
There is doing, but no doer thereof;
There is suffering, but no 'sufferer" thereof;
There is a Path, but none to traverse it;
There is Nirvan, but none to attain it.
This is also the essence of the Upanashids of the Hindus
TWAM EVA KARTA, TWAM EVA BHOKTA
(Thou art the doer, Thou art the
experiencer);
TWAM EVA SHROTA, TWAM EVA VAKTA
(Thou art the listener, Thou art the speaker)
This is also the essence of the dude on the cross,
when after screaming "Why have thou forsaken me"....
The apperception..........
"Thine will, not mine"
And Christ was born.
This is also, the essence of Islam, in the utterance
LA'ILLAHA IL'ALLAHU
(There is no Reality but God; there is only God) ...
