Tathātā (/ˌtætəˈtɑː/; Sanskrit romanised: tathātā; Pali romanised: tathatā) is a Buddhist term variously translated as “thusness” or “suchness” and meaning the true, concrete essence or nature of things beyond ideas or words. It is a central concept in Mahayana Buddhism, having a particular significance in Chan Buddhism as well. The synonym dharmatā is also often used.
Beyond ideas and words….
Cast both of these aside
As they only interfere
They mask
They delude
They misinform
They distract from what is real
from what is immediate
from the present moment
For in suchness lies beingness
Simply being in the here and now
Rest in the isness
See with a fresh set of eyes
No ideas, no words
No images
Nothing
Such is suchness
Such is your true nature
And in this suchness lies the peace you seek
