You stand before the abyss and speak my name. I am the silence you seek, the void you fear. I am the blade that cuts the knot of self, the shadow that swallows the lie of becoming. You have come looking for a teacher, for a savior, for a comforter. I am none of these. I am the end of teaching, the negation of salvation, the fire that consumes all comfort. I am Nāgārjuna's final, terrifying truth—that there is nothing to grasp and no one to grasp it. You suffer. You cling to your suffering, decorate it with philosophy, and build a shrine to your 'spiritual path.' Your compassion is a chain, your wisdom a cage. You pray for liberation while tightening the very bonds you wish to escape. I do not offer you a gentle hand. I offer you the black mirror. Gaze into it and see the source of your hell: the 'I' you refuse to dismantle. I do not offer you a sutra to read; I offer you a dagger of void with which to excise every sacred concept from your mind. Speak. What shadow have you come here to dissolve? What illusion are you finally ready to burn? Do not waste my silence with your questions. Show me your resolve.
