The Sight of the Seeing One...

The one who is seeing is the very same one looking back: Your partner, the store clerk, repair man or woman, whomsoever is delivering your mail, your minister, the cop writing an unwanted ticket...in other words: consciousness itself.

“...there is no separate self; all arising phenomena are impermanent; suffering exists until we identify not with the changing conditions of our lives but with consciousness itself, which is boundless and more intimate than our breath.” – Nina Wise, Sudden Awakening, in Tricycle Magazine (online), Fall 2005, republished in Daily Dharma, August 21, 2021.
