+Many people, especially ignorant people, want to punish you for speaking the

+    The sky is pure, open space, free from all obstructions.  The nature of
+our mind is similar: the afflictions, self-centered attitude, and other
+obscurations are not in its essential nature.  Just as clouds may temporarily
+obscure the open sky, anger, attachment, and confusion can temporarily obscure
+our mind.  When they do, the pure, open nature of the mind still remains; we
+just can't see it at the time.
+    By generating the wisdom realizing the emptiness of inherent existence, we
+will be able to eradicate obscurations from our mind forever and enjoy the
+sky-like spaciousness of a purified mind.
