Desire and aversion

Look into the nature of desire,
and there is boundless light.
Padmasambhava (8th century)

What desire and what aversion?
I am you; my desire is the desired.
There are thoughts, no thinker.

Our desires and aversions are
mirrored in the world we see.
Be one with it, yet beyond it.

Enjoy the sunlight. Seek
the cloud’s protection, and
delight in dancing in the rain.
