Hay-Ku of the Day (Two-Way Attention)

Two-Way Attention
Simultaneously Sees
Within and Without.

Two-Way Attention
Simultaneously Sees
Both Seer and Seen.

[Rich Note: (Photo Caption) Two-Way Seeing (2009): “(Two-Way Attention)…simultaneously to view the thing you are looking at and the No-thing (Aware Space) you are looking out of” (Douglas Harding discription, as quoted in “Open to the Source”).]

Nagarjuna

True, Guy, and the "two-way seeing" suggested is how to actually See there is No Seer, only Pure Seeing (or the Clear Aware Space One Is, Pre-Conceptually) Itself.
