Uncontrived Mind Quotes

“Let’s take the sky as an example. At times, the sun rises high and bright; at others, the stars fill the firmament − regardless, the sky remains unchanged. It does not vanish in the presence of the sun or moon. The original face of our mind is no different than the sky–it does not become something other than itself simply because of our happiness and sorrow, pain and joy, and all of our cravings and attachments. We ought to always remember this basic idea.”
