Wherein Charlie and I range and rove over the varieties and vagaries of Vajrayana, Dzogchen, and the adaptation and evolution of Tantric modes of practice for these turbulent times.
From a song of Milarepa:
All things in saṃsāra and nirvāṇa… all existents, phenomena, appearances, and non-existents,
all these functional realities are inseparably of one taste with the quintessential nature of emptiness…
All share in the vastness of the great coalescence.
The wise who realize this truth no longer see mind, but only wisdom-mind.
They no longer see living beings, only Buddhas.
They no longer see phenomena, only the quintessential nature.
- The Six Yogas of Naropa, translated by Glenn H. Mullin
