Manifestation
and sound arise from the subtle mental imprints
created from thoughts.
As a picture in water disappears of its own accord,
so false appearances automatically fade away when their
lack of reality is understood.
Beyond essential reality there is nothing -
Such is the insight of the Mahamudra.
When
the door of the mind, through which appearances are
created, remains unobstructed, unworped by concepts,
then there is no solid reality, just bright light, and
we let everything that appears just arrive naturally.
Such a practice is the meditation of Mahamudra.
Illusory
appearances are born of the belief in a reality.
Relying on a constant understanding of their
non-reality, we dwell at rest in original spontaneous
nature and the space where there is nothing to accomplish
is thus reached effortlessly.
Such
is the practice of Mahamudra.
These three points are the treasure of my heart.
Since the yogis who go to the heart of everything
are like my own heart, for them I have pronounced these
heart-felt words, which cannot be communicated to others.
