Recognising the Importance of the Dark

Although this is a dark period on Earth, we remain positive.
It is a dark period. In the dark periods, we can make the fastest progress.
Identifying the dark side actually helps us on the path of realisation.
The dark side is merely our own emotions, lying in ambush and taking control.

All sentient beings, throughout the universe, experience and suffer the same emotions, based on a belief in an illusory self image, and are unaware of the wisdom of timeless essence.

The very presence of the emotions enables us to recognise the wisdom of our true essence.

Although there are insane things going on in the world (which we acknowledge), we do not have to be captured by them. We merely recognise and respect, as when encountering a poisonous snake! Screaming and shouting and getting angry will not change a thing. However, whatever creates a reaction in the mind is our teacher, as empty essence clearly identifies any space invader.

If we know our own mind, no one can play with it by pulling the wool over our eyes!

Once we recognise empty mind essence,
anything that appears within it is seen clearly.

Whatever creates a reaction in the mind is our teacher,
as empty essence readily identifies any space invader.

When we till the earth regularly,
weeds are easily seen.

How wonderful! How simple! 😉
