While you’re meditating, all kinds of thoughts arise... You don’t find your thoughts threatening or particularly helpful. They just become the general gossip of your thoughts.

The coming and going of birth and death is a painting. Unsurpassed enlightenment is a painting. The entire phenomenal universe and the empty sky are nothing but a painting Picture Quote #1
