The Essence Of You Is The Same As The Essence Of The Universe

How did the Universe begin?

They tell you it’s the Big Bang

But what’s before the Big Bang?

Why Bang? 

The essence of the Universe 

Is not created

The true nature of the Uncreate 

Is Emptiness 

The Source is the Uncreate

Beginningless 

Through a thought of delusion (illusion/ignorance)

Thus came the Big Bang

And due to causes and conditions

Phenomena dependently arising 

All phenomena are illusions 

Emptiness in nature 

What’s before the Big Bang

Is the uncreated source 

Emptiness 

Buddha-nature

True nature of the Mind

True nature of the Heart 

Original here

No birth no death

The very essence of

Who we truly are 

The essence of you

Is the same as 

The essence of the Universe

You are the Universe ♾

How the Universe is created 

It‘s exactly like how our mind works 

If you ask when did I become ignorant

And have all these ignorant thoughts 

In fact ignorance itself is an illusion 

You think it exists - you are ignorant (a thought of delusion)

and hence give rise to all these ignorant thoughts which lead to ignorant acts (still illusions)

What’s before this thought of delusion 

It’s your original nature

No birth no death

Neither pure nor impure 

Neither increasing nor decreasing 

Not moving at all 

(It will not change regardless of how everything else changes) 

It is as it is and 

Can give rise to all phenomena 

Do not be fooled by phenomena 

Do not be fooled by illusions 

Realise your True Nature

Originally here 

No birth no death 

The Uncreate 

The Universe is not created 

But beginningless 

Phenomena created 

Due to causes and conditions 

And each world will go through 

The period of formation existence destruction and emptiness and recreation again (hence the phenomena are all illusions because if it has birth then it will also have death, existing temporarily - what we call illusions in Buddhism) 

There are infinite worlds and 

Infinite Buddhas and Bodhisattvas 

teaching in infinite worlds 

Time and space are illusions 

The Universe is in fact 

a grand (beautiful and majestic) illusion

Enjoy the illusion
