Merry Christmas and happy 2010.

I wish your genuine practice

allows your mind to express

its own inherent

PEACE

LOVE

and CLARITY.

NAMASTE

Guru yoga: Guendun Rimpoche

Guru, the source of blessings

First yoga: One-pointedness

When the one-pointed stage dawns,
one realizes the intrinsic nature of one´s mind
to be an unceasing stream of clarity and emptiness,
devoid of any center and circumference,
like the expanse of space,
settled in serenity and lucidity.

This is absorptive equipoise
on the first stage of yoga.

Savari: One Taste

Watch, keep watching, but do not watch anything.

Meditate! Keep meditating!

But do not meditate on anything!

Maitripa: Sublimating afflictions

A deluded mind by its intrinsic nature
is great awareness;

It aids meditators greatly.

The way a forest fuels a great fire.

Ouroboros: Ordinary mind

The nondiscriminatory simplicity
of mind is described as wisdom.

That which fulfills the wishes of
sentient beings without exception,
the way a wish-granting gem does,
is described as compassion.
