ZEN LITERATURE: A meditation on form and emptiness IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A solid black horizontal bar and one solid white horizontal bar appear in a square. Within the white bar, which is roughly on the bottom half of the screen, something akin to granite grey and earthen 'textual mountains' seem to appear. Jack: I don't see anything there. Shu: That's zen! Emptiness is form and form is emptiness! Jack: What kind of nonsense is that? Shu: (pausing) Well, let me turn that question around: what kind of nonsense is so-called 'everyday reality'? ===================================================================================== from Lit-A-Rupture: A Post Literary Construction by T Newfields SUMMARY: An abstract image and conversation about emptiness, zen buddhism, and everyday reality.
