"The forest was in deep meditation under the darkness of mysteriously immense silence. Form, and yet formless, things appeared indescribably enlightened, as one interpenetrated into the state of neither perception nor non-perception, neither enlightenment nor non-enlightenment. Absolute freedom is to be free from the known, the dualism. This freedom is the ecstasy of meditation, which is the observation of world existential phenomena at every moment." Rexsy Rexsy.com
