One torch can dissipate the accumulated darkness of a thousand aeons.

It is not the outer objects that entangle us. It is the inner clinging that entangles us.

It's not the appearance that binds you, it's the attachment to the appearance that binds you.

Don’t recall. Don’t imagine. Don’t think. Don’t examine. Don’t control. Rest.

Obsessive use of meditative disciplines or perennial study of scripture and philosophy will never bring forth this wonderful realization, this truth which is natural to awareness, because the mind that desperately desires to reach another realm or level of experience inadvertently ignores the basic light that constitutes all experience.

One torch can dissipate the accumulated darkness of a thousand aeons.

Realizing that nothing can last, that all is as dreamlike illusion.
