A spontaneous arising...



 









All of This

Is uncaused..

Cause and effect

Are uncaused and

Paradoxically

Also This...



When Richard Sylvester met Tony Parsons, he said -“That was the end of what I thought had been my life”.

(Notes from a conversation with Richard Sylvester)


Q: There’s no cause and effect.

Liberation is an uncaused spontaneous arising. So is this glass of water. Everything is an uncaused spontaneous arising. But the mind always has to think in terms of cause and effect. It’s natural for it to do so. The mind has to be in control and it can’t give up control of its own volition. When the mind says “I’m giving up control now”, it’s controlling giving up control.
