Zero Gravity

"Let phenomena go as far as they go and no more. This is as far as they go and no more he said."

Khenpo Rinpoche's commentary:
You have to take phenomena and bring them to the point of exhaustion where they would just dissolve, and in this case it is both the phenomena of original wisdom and ignorance. Neither one of them truly exists. Take them as far as they go and no more, is like a rocket ship that goes up, up, and up until it hits zero gravity. So take all your thoughts to zero gravity. Take them to the point where they just dissolve. I made a good example, didn't I?
