True freedom comes about through confidence in liberating any and all thought states.
Tsoknyi RinpocheA mantra is basically a means of talking with your thoughts and feelings. It's a time-honored method sometimes referred to as prayer, but really it's an opening of a conversation between the heart and the mind.
Tsoknyi RinpocheInstead of thinking of this and that, one thing after the other, let your mind recognize itself in a single moment. When the mind recognizes itself, there is no thing to see there. Itโs just wide open. Thatโs because the essence of mind is empty. Itโs wide open and free
