The nature of phenomena is nondual,
but each one, in its own state,
is beyond the limits of the mind.
There is no concept that can define
the condition of “what is”
but vision nevertheless manifests:
all is good.
Everything has already been accomplished,
and so, having overcome the sickness of effort,
one finds oneself in the self-perfected state:
this is contemplation.

Garab Dorje

Further quotes from the book Dzogchen:

• We can’t ignore our reality
• Just another concept
• The supreme path for that person
• A state of total presence
• Observing our conditioning first
• Dont confuse any culture or tradition with the teachings themselves
• Awareness of our own condition
• Integrating one’s practice with one’s life
• The mistaken dualistic mind
