Wherein Roger and I briefly cover his bio, what brought him to practice, stream-entry and beyond, diving into phenomenological description of centerless, 'empty' consciousness, concluding with epistemological and metaphysical musings.

Dogen:

To study the buddha way is to study the self. To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be actualized by myriad things. When actualized by myriad things, your body and mind as well as the bodies and minds of others drop away. No trace of realization remains, and this no-trace continues endlessly. Garfield, Jay L. Engaging Buddhism (p. 69).

From the Kaccānagotta Sutta (SN 12:15):

“By & large, Kaccāna, this world is supported by [takes as its object] a polarity, that of existence & non-existence. But when one sees the origination of the world as it has come to be with right discernment, ‘non-existence’ with reference to the world does not occur to one. When one sees the cessation of the world as it has come to be with right discernment, ‘existence’ with reference to the world does not occur to one."
