No-effort: Non-meditation

I can keep uttering words,
but it is unnecessary.

I can keep pointing at the moon,
but it is useless unless
you open your eyes.

Savari: Non-meditation

In the discipline of quiescent mahamudra

there is nothing to meditate on, not even an atom.

Do not meditate,
for the perfect meditation

is to remain inseparable

from the state of non-meditation.

Appearances: Climbing

When I started climbing the mountain,
I put a lot of effort into it.

After trekking for a while,
there was just walking.

At the summit,
it was calm and clear.

Without any effort,
nobody went down.

Climber, climbing and mountain,
empty appearances.

Primordial awareness: Mushotoku

Whenever one is absorbed in primordial awareness,
whatever one may be doing-jumping,running,
murmuring or talking- one is still in equipoise.
Whenever one is detached from primordial
awareness, one slips into postabsorption, even
though one may be sitting in meditation.

No distraction: spontaneous presence

I bow down to the guru,
root of all blessings.

Now there is only bliss,
and nobody to cling to it.

Now there is only non-conceptuality,
which is in essence clarity.

It took mind a lot of practice,
to get rid of that old I.

Without I, there is no MINE:
no more hopes and fears.

This can not be one more experience:
there is no experiencer any longer.

I bow down to the Great Seal,
root of samsara and nirvana.

May all sentient beings
discover their real nature.

Great Bliss.

Dorje Chang: Inner Master

They call you Vajradhara,
the holder of the vajra of Rigpa.

You bestow your blessings
upon the worthy practitioners.

Master of masters,
ordinary Mind.

Whoever has seen you,
has seen the nature of mind.

Great Bliss

Dzogchen: Pema lingpa

Wake up from your dream,
created by your karma.

Take the wish fulfilling jewell
and walk like a buddha.

Rigpa has always been your nature
so stop clinging to dual consciousness.

Non-meditation,
non-distraction.

Non Meditation: AH

Je Phagdru writes:

By perfecting this nonmeditation stage,
the meditator attains naked, unsopported awareness.
This nondiscriminatory awareness is the meditation!

By transcending the duality of meditation and meditator,
external and internal realities
the meditating awareness dissolves itself
into its luminous clarity.

Transcending the intellect,
it is without the duality of
equipoise and postequipoise.
Such is the quintessence of mind.

When the meditator reaches the
highest level of nonmeditation,
he will achieve the transcendental qualities,
and will then carry out his spiritual functions
to their ultimate limit.

Luminous emptiness: Rigpa

Looking at the mirror of consciousness,
I found out the spark of awareness.

Listening to the noise of thinking,
I heard the sound of silence.

Eating all arising appearances,
I tasted the essence of clarity.

Feeling the pleasure of meditation,
I discovered the bliss of emptiness.

Smelling the smoke of distraction,
I dived into the perfume of mindfulness.

Looking for My-Self,
I saw nobody.

Luminous Emptiness

Savari: Ordinary Mind

Ordinary Mind consists of natural simplicity.
Do not distort it through intellectual construction.
For the pure nature of mind needs no modulation.
Let the mind be in its natural state
with no attempt at grasping or releasing it.

Having discovered the intrinsic nature of ordinary
Mind, the meditator remains aware of it without
getting distracted, and at the same time maintains
unmodulated whatever immediate mode of mind
or thought arises.
