Buddha takes all ideals away, the whole future away, and finally he takes the last thing
that is very very difficult for us to give -- he takes your very self, leaves a pure, innocent,
virgin emptiness behind. That virgin emptiness he calls nirvana. Nirvana is not a goal, it
is just your emptiness. When you have dropped all that you have accumulated, when you
don't hoard anymore, when you are no longer a miser and a clinger, then suddenly that
emptiness erupts. It has always been there.
