The True Eye

The true eye, the direct translation of the chinese word for enlightenment. It's within, but it's not without. It's not outside, it is and what could possibly separate within from without? If we're talking about one's skin, then that too is empty, has no substantiality to it. That is why, when shaki muni, buddha was first born, he immediately pointed to the heavens and to the earth,. Then, after he had left home and sought enlightenment for six years, he awakened at the sight of the morning star.
