The Great Emptiness (or), the "Nothingness"

[Ming the Merciful]

Any action can be performed in a meditative state

Then people can also discuss existence intellectually in a meditative state. Which invalidates your original proposition in your first post in the thread.

What I am saying is, in the State of No Mind, we are touching the Consciousness, (outside ourselves). Intuitive Mind connects with the Higher Consciousness. When we are in Trance, it is a State beyond normal Intellectual thinking. How is that a contradiction to the first post of this Thread? All the time that we are in gross Intellectual Mind, our Consciousness is observation from a lower level of thinking. In Still Mind, there is no thinking. Any action in Still Mind, is still, Still Mind. Although depending on the action, we can reach different levels of Consciousness. It is learning the art of just "Being".
