It is difficult to explain but I think I had a glimpse of it this summer, I managed to stop thinking more often, I became more in control of my thoughts. and one time while I was walking through a forest I stopped thinking completely and it seemed to me all of the concepts disappeared and everything was very real and close to me. I didn't have a concept of tree or grass or flower or anything I just saw it all without judging it. I didn't separate myself from it. The wholeness. And it seemed to me the emptiness was also, at the same time, everything. I felt empty but also full. I just accepted things as they were. Maybe it is like yin and yang. Everything contains the opposite as well. So when you experience emptiness you feel complete and free in a way. The experience really made me feel calm for a long time.
