The Reality of Matter and the Mental Influence of Humans

I came to realize the truth of "form is emptiness, emptiness is form" through deep meditation. This concept means that all matter is ultimately empty (空) and that this emptiness forms the basis for form (色). This played a crucial role in my understanding of the duality of matter and spirit. The truth I realized through meditation brought significant changes to my daily life and my spiritual journey.

Realization in Meditation

One day, while deep in meditation, I reached a state of tranquility where all the noise of my mind disappeared. At that moment, I realized that matter and spirit are connected as one. I experienced the integration of the particle and wave nature of matter and the fixed ego and connection with the outside world of the mind within the concept of "form is emptiness, emptiness is form." I no longer saw matter and spirit as separate entities but understood that everything is essentially one.

The Nature of Particle and Wave Duality

The particle nature of matter refers to the properties that form chunks and can be observed in the laboratory. However, particle nature alone cannot explain all the properties of matter. The wave nature means that particles are not isolated but connected, giving matter the quality of being "one and yet two." This duality is a crucial concept for understanding the essence of matter. I deeply understood the essence of matter through experiencing this duality in meditation.

The Particle and Wave Nature of Human Spirit

The human spirit, like matter, possesses both particle and wave nature. The particle nature forms the fixed ego of "I," while the wave nature creates the awareness that "I" am connected to the outside world. I continued meditating to find a balance between particle and wave nature. During periods when particle nature was strong, stress and anxiety dominated me. When wave nature was strong, the ego weakened, and I experienced a sense of being one with the whole. These experiences significantly influenced my mental health and identity formation.

Physical Changes from Enhanced Particle Nature

When the particle nature was enhanced, my body felt like a battlefield. Stress and anxiety put my nervous system in a state of tension, weakening my immune system. This degraded my body's functions and prevented organs from performing their roles. I practiced meditation and mindfulness to escape this state. This greatly helped in restoring my physical and mental health.

Physical Changes from Enhanced Wave Nature

When the wave nature was enhanced, my body maintained a peaceful state. Stress decreased, the nervous system stabilized, and the immune system strengthened. This optimized bodily functions and helped maintain a healthy state. I enhanced the wave nature through meditation, experiencing a sense of unity with the whole. This experience led to my enlightenment.

Cosmic Consciousness and Enlightenment

Cosmic consciousness transcends particle and wave nature, a state where the ego of "I" disappears, and one becomes one with the whole. This state is considered enlightenment in Buddhism and is referred to as the true self, original nature, or Buddha nature. I experienced this cosmic consciousness through meditation and sought true enlightenment. This meant a fundamental shift in perception, representing a state of existence that transcends reality.

My Enlightenment

I pursued enlightenment beyond cosmic consciousness. Through the concept of "form is emptiness, emptiness is form," I sought to understand the duality of matter and spirit. Through this, I awoke from the dream of matter and spirit and clearly understood the essence of existence. This enlightenment allowed me to realize that dream and reality are not two, and I could freely navigate between states of particle and wave nature.

A Harmonious Life of Particle and Wave Nature

Through enlightenment, I was able to harmoniously use both particle and wave nature. Whether living with particle nature, wave nature, or mixing the two appropriately, it didn't matter to me at all. This allowed me to feel that everything is a mere dream and to live a free life that transcends reality. A harmonious life means a balanced life, which is essential for maintaining mental and physical health. Modern philosophies and psychological theories also emphasize the importance of this balance, playing a crucial role in enhancing the overall quality of human life.
