According to Buddha
What is the mind? It is a phenonmenon that is not body, not substantial, has no form, no shape, no colour, but, like a mirror, can clearly reflect objects.

wonder endlessly, i don’t look down
making me forgive making me brave
looking for a chance to change my wings
lately i’ve been wondering why i stay
feeling like
space invades my mind

This poetic post reminds me of the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Thanks a cool connection sweetspontaneous 🤓⭐️ “Eternal sunshine” is a metaphor for ongoing peace, happiness and carefree. So in full “Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind” is describing the happiness and joy one can experience once the negative experiences (or “spots”) have been removed from your mind…imagine🤓🤍🕊sending joy I’m going to rematch that film🙏sending joy hedy💫
Nicely atmospheric
It was Derrick snowy winter morning walk👣🐶❄️❄️❄️👣good footing too🤓sending you joy💫hedy
Mind interrupts all matters of the senses as only it can do.
Without it, we would know nothing. With it we know everything.
For instance, because of mind, I see (and know) your photos
are simply stunning! all that snow OMG
stay warm dear friend, love, Eddie

Cold E-town! Over here in Groningen we go no snow but a little frost we do have. According to out weather service we had a ‘felt temperature’ of -16 degrees Celsius las night! Well, in cases like this I don’t have the urge to go out and check it. 🙂 Merry Christmas Hedy!

Beautiful words, images and ideas Hedy.
Thank you kindly Cindy appreciated 🤍🕊sending joy hedy 💫
Honestly, I think the trouble is that the mind CANNOT clearly reflect objects… I think that’s why we have so many of the troubles that we have…
I also thought about the words from Lama Yeshe, Lama Zopa Rinpoche in the book Lamrim Year: Making Life Meaningful Day by Day…I also wonder about clear reflections Hetty…my snowy blurred day…there is a lot about what I see makes me question exactly what you say ❄️❄️❄️🤍but I don’t know 🤷♀️ sending joy 💫hedy
