Summary: Talk given by Andrea Marton. "When you reach the bottom of your life and see the ultimate nature of being, you realize there is nothing there. Well, there is only one thing there: motion. That movement is the basic nature of being: the rhythm of life itself. The movement of nothingness gives you a certain kind of energy. It shoots up from the basic nature of being, and you receive it as the energy of your own life. That is enlightenment, we say, but strictly speaking it is Buddha's compassion. It is the great compassion you already possess." -- Katagiri Roshi
