Once you are able to remain in the nature of the mind, which is rigpa, you will first experience what is called "abiding in the nature of the mind", then the "movement of the nature of the mind", and then "awareness of both abiding and movement".

You need to examine these three - abiding, movement, and awareness, or observation - to see if they are separate or the same. When you are abiding in the nature of the mind, this nature of the mind is utterly free - free from discursive thoughts.

Movement refers to the movement of the nature of the mind, which is the arising of discursive thoughts.

Awareness of the abiding and the movement is simply that. When you examine these with awareness, you will see that they are not different, and you will come to understand that these three are one and the same - just one flow.

When you are aware of abiding in the nature of the mind, that is the meditation. Yet from that nature of mind, anything and everything arises. Part of the meditation is to realise that all discursive thoughts, whatever is arising, are only the display of placement, or the nature itself.

When we are remaining in the nature of the mind, anything that arises, any discursive thoughts, are immediately recognised as being simply the play, or the display, of the nature of the mind.

You must practice the two sets of three - where the mind arises from, where it remains, and where it passes to, and then abiding, movement, and awareness. You must try your best to realise the nature of the mind to be empty, luminously clear, and unobstructedly compassionate. This realisation is the actualisation of the view and is also the maintenance of the view in the meditative experience.

When you are in equipoise, your experiences are just experiences; they arise and they pass and there is nothing to hope for or to be disappointed in. As you maintain the meditation, which is awareness that everything is just the display of the primordial nature, you will be able to ascertain it all in the nature of the great equality and remain in that nature of equality, free from all expectation and disappointment and of all negative emotions.
