47.82 - 151.842 Samaneri Jayasara

Seeing objects as external is a mistaken concept like a dream they are empty of concreteness this mind as well is a mere movement of attention that has no self-nature Being merely like a gust of wind. Empty of identity like space. All things like space are equal. When speaking of Mahamudra, it is not an identity that can be shown. Therefore the mind's suchness is itself the state of Mahamudra.

Chapter 2: How does the mind relate to the concept of Mahamudra?

168.002 - 257.091 Samaneri Jayasara

while being undistracted from its continuity. There is neither a composed nor an uncomposed state to be cultivated or corrected with a remedy. It is not made out of anything. Experience self-liberated is Dharmadhatu.

Chapter 4: How do emotions contribute to the path of a yogi?

450.834 - 556.943 Samaneri Jayasara

Thinking self-liberated is great wisdom. Non-dual equality is Dharmakaya. Like the continuous flow of a great river, whatever you do is meaningful.
