Elaborations Self-Liberated

There are many different kinds of elaborations. In vajrayāna, all the deities and mandalas are only elaborations, only concepts. For example, the Kālachakra has over a thousand deities, all of which are only elaborations of conceptual mind. You can think about them, but then remember that thoughts about elaborations are self-liberated.


Composed by Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche, in 2005 on Holy Island, Scotland.

Translated by Ari Goldfield.

 

 

Know this life to be like a dream.
See the mind’s unborn nature.
Aspire to be of benefit to others.

– Khenchen Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche
