Although those who fear desire
Rack their brains seeking liberation from it,
It remains forever intrinsically pure.
Morning meditation — In consequence a perception of the Path will no longer occur to him.
‘In consequence a perception of the Path will no longer occur to him — how much less will he see the Path! “One who has finished with the Path”, that is a synonym of a monk who is an Arhat whose outflows are extinct.’
The Buddha
Morning meditation —Having the resolve of awareness.
‘Princely people,
Having the resolve of awareness,
Understood what it means,
And that very moment
Was the instant of the ending of time for them.’
The Great Tantra of Vajrasattva

Morning meditation — If one universally shines over all sentient beings.

Master Bojo
