In meditation practice

In meditation practice, you might experience a muddy, semiconscious, drifting state, like having a hood over your head: a dreamy dullness. This is really nothing more than a kind of blurred and mindless stagnation. How do you get out of this state? Alert yourself, straighten your back, breathe the stale air out of your lungs, and direct your awareness into clear space to freshen your mind. If you remain in this stagnant state you will not evolve, so whenever this setback arises, clear it again and again. It is important to be as watchful as possible, and to stay as vigilant as you can. ~ Dudjom Rinpoche

Fresh present knowing

This fresh present knowing, unbound by the intellect that clings to meditation, is naked unobstructed non-meditation.
Relax at ease and settle in the state of naturalness. This is the meaning of realization of meditation.

When thoughts move, let them. Movement arises and is liberated without a trace.
When there is no movement, don’t search for it. This is empty luminosity, naked empty awareness.

Tantric practice without suppression or cultivation of thoughts brings the accomplishment of the destruction of hope and fear. There is nothing more to add to this.

Madman Dudjom said this: Let it remain like this in your heart.
