Ahh, but you 'know' there is 
In saying there is no 'thing', the 'thing' that is negated is known.
Apart from the 'things' known, there is no 'thing'.
The 'thing' that is known, is not what you think it is  
Love

All apparent participants in this thread have eaten from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. 
Apple, any one  |

There is nothing to fear from this sweet, perfectly ordinary apple!
What danger could there possibly be from love?! Nothing is safer!!! 
And it's really not the end of anything.....it's the delicious beginning of a wonderful (YUMMM!!!) culinary adventure!
To quote Tony: "The real adventure begins"!
love,

leogod, most apt reference... as usual. (in Aussie, this is called sucking up to the boss )
mikeadam: "lovely apple, thanks saraeve"... though it does seem to take an eternity to digest.
nemosnake, what is the difference between thinking and knowing? 
Love

The word 'tree' is a concept, and as such can never be seen or perceived by
the senses.
Only in consciousness does the general concept of tree exist.

Of course... though this 'general concept', is not what 'thoughts' say it is 
It is 'that which is known'... infinitely more than words ('human' thoughts) can ever say

Hmmm, yes.
But at least that gnawing, hungry yearning for more food (for 'thought') is happily satisfied

ok, seriously now...I want to try this apple - how does it taste?

You would eat yourself?
aehmmm..... that might be the answer!!!
O.k., to modify the haiku:
The experiencer
that experiences the experience
is about to expire.
And there's nothing left (*BURRRP*) but the 'core'. 
love,
