In Taoism and Zen Buddhism you
time after time hear the statement about emptying out the mind.
To empty out the mind means,
that you are emptying it for its content.
The content of the mind is the
known, your perspective of life, your historical limitation, the past which
projects ifself into the future, the past and the future which sucks life out
of the present and transforms memories and plans into reality, and reality into
emptiness.
In this way the mind, or the
Ego, makes ifself independent in relation to your reality, and the reason is
lost.
To empty out the mind is the
opposite movement. You give life back to the present, you are emptying the mind
and are filling reality with vitality and urge to live.
In this way the mind becomes
one with your reality, and the reason is won.
