Intrinsic vibrant emptiness

"Imagination relies on empty perception. Painting relies on empty planes. Sculpture relies on empty space. Music relies on empty time. Literature relies on empty concepts. If we are to realise the art of freedom, if we are to discover our creative potential, we need to rely on the experience of our intrinsic vibrant emptiness - the beginningless ground of what we are."
