no thing

"I found myself without desires
  and without knowledge.

 There was nothing left but love,
 the state of witness was left behind; 
 there was only love, all pervading,
 all embracing, absolute. 

 There were no crucial experiences, 
 no soul-shattering visions.
 I just ceased imagining myself to 
 be what I never was and there was
 nothing to replace the unreal with. 

 There was no need to look for
 replacements - the nothingness 
 was the fullness of understanding, 
 love and silent peace." 

 ~ Nisargadatta Maharaj
