To an experienced practitioner, still mind is mind and moving mind is mind.
Once a practitioner has already recognized the empty nature of mind,
Moving mind and still mind are not two different things.
No matter what thought arises, no matter what appears,
it is empty of nature;
Patrul Rinpoche
Why do we identify with thought and feeling?
Why don’t we leave them as they are?
Facing life is as is without ‘me’.
I am not saying we should be stoic or apathetic.
Only compassion gets us anywhere.
Engage free of identification.
If it were so easy, everyone would be enlightened.
We cannot meditate our self into submission.
We have to struggle with life for serenity.
Be one with the thought-feeling energy as it comes,
but get to the root-cause of ego identification,
until the day when engagement is free.
