Great stuff, thank you, Leonard! Been meditating on the concept "God is everything = I am nothing," or full of nothing (loving nothing, caring nothing, beautiful nothing, etc.) from your books as well as your video lectures; this concept I have found a great tool in reducing anxiety. The reverse, "I am everything = God is nothing" is a major source of anxiety I find, and probably directly traceable to most of the world's ills. Interesting how these two sides of the equation are inversely proportional -- and still another interesting corollary being, "God and I are everything." (And "God and I are nothing?") For of course we are all everything and nothing depending on our perspective: the manifested and the unmanifested in Advaita Vedanta.
Leonard's teaching is radically simple and direct.
So Beautiful!! Thank you very much!
