The Rule of Law

The rule of law is a necessary and good thing: it is in part a codifying of behaviors that can not and should not be tolerated, and in part a set of principles where by formal agreements can be made. When the law serves class principles or idealism it becomes a tool of oppression.

Let's take "good" for example.

The Contemplation of the Void


All things are just as they are: in and of themselves they contain nothing. Suchness is Empty.

The "contemplation of the void" is: be wholly aware not using mind. When one is aware at this level, any movement of the mind can be recognized as twitching. If you can be aware without twitching an interesting state ensues. You learn the nature of the twitch, and you can learn to twitch or not at your purpose.

The contemplation of the void is the contemplation of awareness. The receptive emptiness of awareness is it's facility.
