empty ness of the brain while walking
Emptiness of the brain
And
walking on that road, there was complete emptiness of the brain, and the
mind was free of all experience, the knowing of yesterday, though a
thousand yesterdays have been. Time, the thing of thought, had stopped;
literally there was no movement before and after; there was no going or
arriving or standing still. Space as distance was not; there were the
hills and bushes but not as high and low. There was no relationship with
anything but there was an awareness of the bridge and the passer-by.
The totality of the mind, in which is the brain with its thoughts and
feelings, was empty; and because it was empty, there was energy, a
deepening and widening energy without measure. All comparison,
measurement belong to thought and so to time. The otherness was the mind
without time; it was the breath of innocence and immensity. Words are
not reality; they are only means of communication but they are not the
innocence and the immeasurable. The emptiness was alone.
