Freedom in Emptiness
Once we realize the truth of emptiness and interconnectedness, we are free. The path is sometimes called 'liberation' and that is the reason why. There is freedom in the path. We can meet the world without such strong expectations. We can face the world without making enemies out of it all the time.
In this way we can stride through the universe, wild and free in our understanding of the way things really are. We can expose ourselves to the world with complete openness.
When we begin to realize that the nature of things is actually empty, then things don't seem to be in our way anymore. There is nothing stopping us from expanding our love and compassion infinitely.
The purpose of talking about emptiness is to realize that if there's no separation, then we are free.
