There is no emptiness without appearance, and there is no appearance without emptiness. That is what we call the interdependent nature.

The truth about who we really are, beyond all appearances, is knowledge worth seeking.

I still noticed that little streak of rebelliousness coming up in me again - the same sense of dissatisfaction I had felt earlier with the empty rituals and institutionalized values of all religious traditions.

It is not about how much you give, it is about how much you can let go with your mind.

The true opponent in a debate on emptiness is your own ego.

You fall in love with your heart; you fall out of love with your head.

When we recognize that the seemingly object nature of reality is nothing different than the subject nature of mind, which is rigpa, it is called enlightenment.
