Tathata

 The perfect man uses his mind as a mirror. It grasps nothing, it refuses nothing. It receives but does not keep.

Zhuangzi

Tathata is  a word that simply means "That, that, and that". It is referring to the ten thousand functions, ten thousand things, one suchness.

Everything is energy. Life is a dance of energy playing around us and through us. Death is just the other face of  that energy, 

and it is the rest, the not being anything around that which produces something around

You can't have space without solid, or solid without space

You are a playing of this one energy

Energy is eternal delight...William Blake

And where does our greater wisdom come in?

...and you suddenly see through the whole sham of things. You realize you're that and you can't be anything else...but that

You are that Tathata...that everything.

All is well

Note: I am trusting the below is actually Alan Watts speaking from past recordings and not an  AI impersonation?
