ABSTRACT
If emptiness were the technique, there would be no (complete) enlightenment. No fruit is of a genus different from its seed, so emptiness cannot be the art (of embodying enlightenment). Victors teach emptiness to vanquish the self-(reifying) constructs of those who insist on their view of (personal) self and those who reject the view (that things also lack self). Hence, it is (envisioning) the sphere of a perfected world which binds the blissful art. Through union with the dignity of an enlightened being, enlightenment will not be far. The Teacher was endowed with the thirty-two signs and eighty-four marks (of altruistic embodiment) Therefore, the technique is to assume (the form of) success, which is the Teacher’s form itself.
