No matter how it may be obscured by adventitious stains, in +terms of its nature, it is never tainted by stains, while the stains exist in +the manner of being separable from it. This mind that is the inseparability +of being lucid and being empty has the nature of being permanent and being +free from change, decrease, and increase. It is ever undeceiving, changeless, +and genuinely stable. Throughout all three phases of ground, path, and +fruition, it is this nature of the mind that is certain to be solely the +object of the genuine meditative equipoise within the qualities that are the +nature of phenomena. This is what needs to be manifested through the practice +of superior insight. + -- from "When the Clouds Part: The Uttaratantra and Its Meditative Tradition + as a Bridge between Sutra and Tantra", translated by Karl Brunnholzl, + published by Shambhala Publications -- 2.34.1
