Gazing at the uncontrived sameness of every experience ~ Longchenpa

We should cast aside all childish games that fetter and exhaust body, speech and mind; and stretching out in inconceivable nonaction, in the unstructured matrix, the actuality of emptiness, where the natural perfection of reality lies, we should gaze at the uncontrived sameness of every experience, all conditioning and ambition resolved with finality.

Homage to Glorious Samantabhadra, the All-Good ~ Longchenpa

To timeless buddhahood, basic total presence,
To unchanging spontaneity, the spacious vajra-heart,
To the nature of mind – natural perfection,
Constantly, simply being, we bow down.

The soaring of the carefree yogin ~ Longchenpa

Hatching from the egg and flying away is like abandoning the corporeal shell in buddhahood;
the view of natural perfection is like a great garuda soaring in the empty sky;
the carefree yogin soars like a great garuda.

The quintessential teaching of the Buddha ~ Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

Awareness is the quintessential teaching of the Buddha – from the awareness of cool air as you breath in and then out, to the profound awareness of natural perfection. And with boundless compassion and courage, the sole purpose and activity of all the buddhas it is to ring the alarm bell that brings us to this awareness.
