Your post reminded me of something I spontaneously wrote in the middle of a week-long intense traditional Japanese style Zen sesshin in 2017, when I was deeply *feeling* myself AS (Being) the “dark” infinite potentiality of the “primordial womb” in which everything that is perceived is birthed (arises), Known, and dissolves:
Yes! There is something profoundly ALIVE about the darkness... the stillness... the emptiness that can't always be perceived by our everyday senses. Thank you for sharing!
Other phrases I’ve written that speak to the supreme beauty and richness of the “darkness” (the inexhaustible Valley of the Divine Feminine spoken of in the Tao Te Ching):
Thank you : )
