Watch the thoughts as they arise

 Watch the thoughts as they arise. Watch the perceptions as they arise. Watch the watcher as it arises. Watch the sense of "me" arising. Watch thoughts of suffering arise one at a time. There never appears more than a single thought at any one time. Then this thought, then this thought. They vanish upon the arising which reveals their emptiness. Seeing the emptiness of one thought is seeing the emptiness of all thoughts. Same taste. Seeing the emptiness of one perception is seeing the emptiness of all perceptions. Seeing the emptiness of one belief is seeing the emptiness of all beliefs. Seeing the emptiness of one's self is seeing the emptiness of all selves.

Experience is always just this current empty thought or empty perception: look into this directly by examining just this current thought or perception. All of experience is never more than this current empty perception or thought.
Seeing this clearly and directly reveals true liberation in each moment. Not seeing this clearly in every moment is the only cause of suffering.
