"...I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion, and elimination of ignorance, selfishness, and greed..."
His Holiness the Dalai Lama
The wisdom of emptiness refers to a lack of something: 'inherent existence'. 'Inherent existence' means that things appear to exist independently, in- and out of themselves, from the side of the object, by way of its' own character, self-powered, autonomous. Ultimately however, things exist in dependence upon causes and conditions. For example, a human being ceases to exist in a vacuum, we would instantly die when all conditions for life are suddenly gone. On another level, a human being needs to come into existence by the combination of a sperm from the father joining an egg from the mother and all the right conditions to grow into an embryo. So, considering ourselves as independently existing, fully autonomous is a mere illusion and does not accord with ultimate reality.
Please see my latest posting about Heather Riggio's disappearance at Justice in Miami ~ http://justiceinmiami. org
Thankfully,a few media outlets picked up Heather's story. The Miami Herald wrote a good article about it on today's paper. The writer, David Ovalle, included very helpful information about the Kid Finders Network. As he writes: "The billboard is being provided to North Miami Beach police by the Kid Finders Network, a West Palm Beach-based volunteer organization run by Sherri and Dennis Milstead. Kid Finders, which relies on donations, provides mobile billboards aimed at finding missing young people. The price of Riggio's mobile billboard -- the printing of the banner and trailer upkeep -- is about $3,000, footed so far by the Milsteads. ''We work off donations and we're still trying to get sponsors,'' Sherri Milstead said.....We're hanging by a shoestring.''
Miami residents and businesses, please support Kid Finders Network. They desperately need corporate sponsors. Their work is crucial to finding Heather and so many missing loved ones. They also seek volunteers to drive the mobile billboard around South Dade and Homestead.
If you have any information, anything at all, please contact North Miami Beach Police at 305-949-5500.
