Sogyal Rinpoche Quotes About Awareness

Quotes about: Awareness

• ...we and all sentient beings fundamentally have the buddha nature as our innermost essence. . . .

  Sogyal Rinpoche

  Nature, Essence, Awareness

• In meditation take care not to impose anything on the mind, or to tax it. When you meditate there should be no effort to control, and no attempt to be peaceful. Don't be overly solemn or feel that you are taking part in some special ritual; let go even of the idea that you are meditating. Let your body remain as it is, your breath as you find it, and remain in your natural condition of unchanging pure awareness.

• When one past thought has ceased and a future thought has not yet risen,
  in that gap, in between, isn't there a consciousness of the present moment;
  fresh, virgin, unaltered by even a hair's breadth of a concept, a luminous, naked awareness?
  Well, that's what naturally peaceful awareness is.

• The purpose of meditation is to awaken in us the sky-like nature of mind, and to introduce us to that which we really are, our unchanging pure awareness, which underlies the whole of life and death
