for a note on this video, see the notes following the post below
the whole – all that is – is what is
nothing is other than what is
nothing is other than the whole
nothing doesn’t change
nothing is perfect
nothing depends on nothing
only in the mind or by convention
is anything or anyone an entity
nothing is other than the whole
no one is
the whole – all that is – is what is
nothing is other than what is
nothing is other than the whole
nothing doesn’t change
nothing is perfect
nothing depends on nothing

is anything or anyone an entity
nothing is other than the whole
no one is

/ the video above is of the Sunday service on November 6 at a small Unitarian church in Fall River, Massachusetts, and is set to start at the point when Rev. Richard Trudeau begins to speak on the topic of the day – with breaks during the next twelve minutes for other aspects of the service
nothing doesn’t change … nothing depends on nothing / anicca, dukkha, anatta (!?)
nothing is perfect / apart from the whole … dukkha/nirvana (!?)
/ nirvana: wanting nothing; being at one with what is – the whole – as seen in this moment by the whole
/ dukkha: wanting something; being at odds with what is – the whole – as seen by an entity not the whole
no one is / the self – an entity not the whole – is an illusion, a mental construct reinforced by convention
/practice self-inquiry (!?) …
as a thought – or anything – arises, silently ask to whom it arises, and then ask: Who am I? (!*)
