The dualistic mind cannot apprehend the nondual union of form and emptiness. Only by giving rise to the nondual mind can nondual experience unfold. No matter how much we think about nonduality, we will not experience it unless we walk a path that leads us to suspend conceptuality altogether.

You cannot walk this whole path alone, and if you try, you will fail. So, you begin to turn your mind toward the Buddha and all those who inherited the teachings of the Buddha, all the great masters of the past.
