' Creative Emptiness '...

Can you not just listen to this as the soil receives the seed and see if the mind is capable of being free, empty?

It can be empty only by understanding all its own projections, its own activities, not off and on, but from day to day, from moment to moment.

Then you will find the answer, then you will see that the change comes without your asking, that the state of creative emptiness is not a thing to be cultivated - it is there, it comes darkly, without any invitation, and only in that state is there a possibility of renewal, newness, revolution.
