Formless Openess

Hey all,

I just had a realization that is a bit strange to put into words, but is true nevertheless, and it's that true openness has no form.

As in, there isn't any thing to do. Nothing requires being done as if. These are all things that occupy attention and mind, but real openness doesn't show up as absence. It doesn't really show up as anything at all except for what might "show up as a result of openness."

Even making statements such at "un-attatchedness" refer to something "substantial," like "not doing the other stuff" or not doing the stuff that we call "closed," but what really is openess?

It doesn't really seem to take any form at all. As in there isn't any "thing" or "action" that we could call openness. It's more like a blank piece of paper, or the empty space in which an object can exist.
