what is on the mind? when i've studied buddhism, i've gone through a lot of its different philosophies. one concept i learned about at first was nirvana. it's interesting but as i studied different other things about it, i drifted to meditation, practice, the religion of it, the different schools, like zen or shin, and my efforts were very wide, but eventually you come back to the idea of the buddha. since the buddha is the unformed, everything formed is arising out of it. everything we see and interpret is an interpretation of the buddha. that is why the unformed is always at the back of our consciousnesses. when we are awake and aware, it is a formed awareness overlaying another, unformed, awareness. so everything is the buddha.
