When we understand that it is the emptiness of a vessel that holds value, we understand that only within emptiness can we create.
You cannot create home within a mountain without emptiness within.
Take away the caves and crevasses and nothing can be within.
When we open our mind and create emptiness within by removing our own personal bias and forgetting that which we all ready know, we are ready to create within our mind a new and better self.
Information brought into our mind can now be viewed in simplicity and understood for that which it is, without the baggage of ourselves to corrupt the information we receive.
When we open our mind then all information can get in.
If we are not hardheaded then we have no filter to be able to reject that which may enter.
Our mind will fill with that which surrounds us and our head will go flat, for now the vessel that contains our self will no longer have a level of emptiness left to create improvement of one's self within.
We will always be that of what we are filled with and nothing more.
Growth only takes place when one is not full.
We must be hardheaded and retain the ability to reject that which is around us in order to be able to maintain a level of emptiness, in order to learn from our "Light" within and grow.
We must continue to empty our mind and allow further information to enter and be evaluated in order for growth within to take place.
The information that remains the same after each time we empty our mind and learn again will become the foundation of who and what we are.
When we no longer empty our mind, then stagnant we shall be.
Words of a friend of "The Light".
May peace be with all.
