Auspicious Connections

 

When the sun
Arrives at the center of the blue mid-heaven,

The auspicious connections occur
For the earth’s grove of lotus flowers to bloom.

When drops of honey rain
Arrive from the cluster of the sky’s white clouds,

The auspicious connections occur
For the valley’s flowers and fruits to ripen soon.

When awareness-holding practitioners
Arrive in regions of their directionless wandering,

The auspicious connections occur
For fortunate disciples’ benefit and happiness to appear.

The Nature of Mind

No words can describe it.
No example can point to it.
Samsara does not make it worse.
Enlightenment does not make it better.
It has never been born.
It has never ceased.
It has never been liberated.
It has never been deluded.
It has never existed.
It has never been nonexistent.
It has no limits at all.
It does not fall into any kind of category.

~ Dudjom Rinpoche Jigdral Yeshe Dorje Quotes

Lama’s Blessings

To nurture stillness, to nurture spiritual experiences, to nurture samadhi and other spiritual states ~ these are common.

But by the strength of your devotion for realization to arise from within due to the Lama’s blessings ~ this is rare.
