Oh, Child of Buddha Nature, listen! Pure inner radiance – reality itself – is now arising before you! Recognise it! This radiant essence that is now your conscious awareness is a brilliant emptiness. It is beyond substance, beyond characteristics and beyond colour, completely empty of inherent existence in any respect whatsoever. The essence of your own conscious awareness is emptiness. Yet, this is not a vacuous or nihilistic emptiness.
This, your very own conscious awareness is unimpededly radiant, brilliant and vibrant. The utterly indivisible presence of these two; the essence of your own awareness which is empty, without inherent existence with respect to any substance whatsoever and your own conscious awareness, which is vibrant and radiantly present, is the Buddha Body of Reality.
This intrinsic awareness, manifest in a great mass of light, in which radiance and emptiness are indivisible, is the buddha nature of unchanging light, beyond birth or death. Just to recognise this is enough!
~ Padmasambhava
"The basis, one’s vidyÄ�, is like a crystal ball;
its emptiness is the nature of the dharmak�ya;
its self-revealing clarity is the sambhogak�ya;
and the door of unceasing arising is the nirmanak�ya.
~ Lama Shabkar
