These words from this supreme master (the main teacher of Matthieu Ricard, as well as mine) point out not just the real essence of meditation, but point to the nature of the mind. If we can apply this method & recognize that nature, it becomes not just an instruction to carry out on the meditation cushion, but an invaluable asset for every waking or dreaming moment. Once, I woke up one night tormented by certain thoughts that had plagued me day and night for a few years, and finally I saw that nature free of the delusion--and I said to myself,"What the f*ck." With that, it was over.
