Let there be total openness, and just relax within that. -- Dza Kilung Rinpoche, "The Relaxed Mind", published by Shambhala Publications +~ +Awareness does not engage with objects of the ordinary mind. It is “self- +cognizing primordial wisdom.” This can be illustrated by the “light” of +the new moon: a profoundly indwelling luminosity, which does not radiate +outward. Therefore, despite the fact that the five primordial wisdoms are +spontaneously present in awareness, the latter is without thoughts related to +sense objects. By contrast, even when it is still, the ordinary mind +nevertheless “moves” and follows after different objects. It is like the +light of the moon on the fifteenth of the month, which radiates outward and +engulfs everything. + -- Longchen Yeshe Dorje, Kangyur Rinpoche, and Jigme Lingpa, in "Treasury of + Precious Qualities: Book Two", published by Shambhala Publications
