The field of boundless emptiness
Is what exists from the very beginning.
You must purify, cure, grind down,
Or brush away all the tendencies
You have fabricated into apparent habits.
- Hongzhi Zhengjue (1091–1157)
To be fresh. empty of all of those things that we have picked up over time and made a part of ourselves. Those things we did not know where not who we are but those things that we now perceive as us. Those things of which we now need to let go of once again.
