In the very profound sutras, it is said that non-seeing is to see this. Here, there is no seeing and no seer, no beginning and no end, just peace. Entities and nonentities are left behind. It is non-conceptual and non-referential. It is inexpressible, unobservable, unchanging, and unconditioned. When it is realised by yogins, afflictive and cognitive obscurations are relinquished.

-- Atiśha

When, from out of the primordially pure Dharmadhatu, suddenly Rigpa arises, and with it there is an instantaneous recognition, it is like finding a precious jewel in the depths of the ocean, no-one has created it - it is just the Dharmakaya. 

-- Garab Dorje

For any individual whose mind is religiously evolved and free from the conditioning of religiosity and religionism; in other words, for one who has evolved with a creed, and thereby acts in accordance with a code, but not conditioned by a cult or community, Religion is not a threat to liberty, but a real source of liberty.

-- 5th Samdhong Rinpoche, Lobsang Tenzin

To put it another way, as long as we are experiencing a defect like jealousy or envy, we cannot experience loving-kindness. And when we are experiencing loving-kindness, we cannot experience jealousy or envy. The two cannot happen at the same time. To be jealous is to desire someone else's well-being and success for yourself. To experience loving-kindness, on the other hand, is to be happy for others and rejoice when you witness their well-being and success, whether it be of a material or a spiritual nature. Jealousy runs completely counter to this disposition. In a similar fashion, when you experience genuine compassion, you cannot simultaneously experience hatred, anger, or aggression. As long as there is the one, it will displace the other.

-- Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche

Rejoicing is habituating yourself to feeling happy about all the constructive acts of the Triumphant Ones, their spiritual offspring, and all wandering beings. This is a supreme method for transforming fathomless masses of positive force into something immeasurably great.

-- Longchenpa

In the Mantra approach, with its many methods and few austerities, a person of sharp faculties and high intelligence may gather the two accumulations during all activities and never do even a trace of anything meaningless.

-- Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye

Even the darkness that has gathered during a thousand eons is dispelled by a single lamp. Likewise, in an instant the clear light of your own mind dispels the ignorance, sins, and obscuration that have been accumulated for eons. 

-- Tilopa

The calmed say that what is well-spoken is best; second, that one should say what is right, not unrighteous; third, what is pleasing, not displeasing; fourth, what is true, not false.

-- The Buddha

Happy New Year 2020

A Happy New Near to all family, relatives and friends that journeyed with me for the past year.

To the teachers that guided me on my spiritual path and made me a better person, taught me to look at things with different perspectives instead of bias opinion. 

I sincerely thank all and value your friendship.

Happiness isn't something we need to find or achieve. It is the very core of our being.

-- Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche
