The gateless gate

"Resting the watcher in awareness 

there is a vivid emptiness,

Colourless and devoid of material substance.

Not forming the thought "It is empty"

That is the moment of seeing the nature of mind"

Chokgyur Lingpa

 

"Never confuse

Rest as a state of mind with

Rest as a state of being.

The former comes and goes

Like dew on grass

Wheras the latter is

The source of all activity."

Wu Hsin

 

 

 Ordinary awareness

 

is

 

the timeless key

 

This truth you can only be

 

You are That

 

In this understanding

 

You enter the gateless gate

 

dis-cover the stateless state

 

Already naturally here

 

 a simplicity so clear

 

as it

 

is
