I would be extremely curious to know what each person reading this thinks when they try to discern the meaning of 'emptiness' as Godwide has used it here.
It seems GWV raises three concepts - emptiness, awareness, and mental chatter. In my experience, mental chatter is what blocks awareness from being experienced.
In my familiarity with Buddhist concepts, I tend to want to define emptiness as a state of no desire, no movement, just being without trying to even direct awareness towards this beingness.
So perhaps this emptiness can only be "achieved" once one is familiar with their awareness?
