The dreamWithinTheDreamXXVIII“Everything was made of emptiness, and form(or physical-ness and even consciousness) iscondensed emptiness.”I began to appreciate the brilliance ofBuddhism and the Shurangama Sutra asanother bubble appeared. I didn’t entercompletely into it, but glanced somehowtowards it. Within the bubble was an imageof Albert Einstein and a Buddha lookingcharacter. Memories of the Shurangama Sutrarang through the emptiness as the bubblepopped,“Everything was made of emptiness, and form(or physical-ness and even consciousness) iscondensed emptiness.”137
As I looked deeply through the vehicle ofawareness, form and emptiness began to blendinto one another.And no longer were.138
