The quote "
Like it or not, if you look at your own mind you will discover it is void and groundless; as insubstantial as empty space" belongs to
"Padma Sambhava" and is refered to as a known buddhist proverb.
I think it is used to teach that we are originally empty until we fill our minds with knowledge. The only thing we can rely on as substantiation is fact, which we only can obtain through studying. Still it is like joy and sorrow who exist only in the mind. In true form we go back to nothingness and leave the eternal boundaries of this world.
This is only what i think it means.. as always I'm open for discussion ^_^.

I disagree.. my mind is so full I have trouble
finding what I want... there is constantly traffic
in my head.
