reading Pema Chodron's Living Beautifully and she quotes the late poet Rick Fields:
This world -absolutely pure
As is. Behind the fear,
vulnerability. Behind that,
Sadness, then compassion.
And behind that the vast sky.

dmf,
Beautiful words...
How to 'think' that VAST emptiness of SKY? How to feel that absolute purity and go beyond the Great Zero (and the stage of nihilism)?
What say you on nihilism?
m- any particular aspect of nihilism that you are asking about? I'm not as interested in thinking vastness as in living with/in it, mind-ing it if you will for a truer sense of perspective.
In general on these matters I'm sort of like Rorty only with a better sense of phenomenology/psychology, not sure if that's helpful or not but I tend not see these matters in metaphysical terms but stick to the low ground of "mere" anthropology where we are a time-limited-kluged-contingency who seem to be well on our ways to doing ourselves in, as to how to how to go down with the ship with grace I'm still working on that...
