the intrinsic nature of mind

Yet, however strong these thoughts may seem, they are just thoughts and will eventually dissolve back into emptiness. Once you recognize the intrinsic nature of the mind, these thoughts that seem to appear and disappear all the time can no longer fool you. Just as clouds form, last for a while, and then dissolve back into the empty sky, so deluded thoughts arise, remain for a while, and then vanish into the voidness of mind; in reality nothing at all has happened.
~ Dilgo Rinpoche

然而，無論這些想法看似多麼強烈，它們都只是念頭，最終將重新融入空性中。一旦你認識心本具的自性，那些似乎一直出現又消失的念頭就再也無法愚弄你。就像雲朵的形成，持續一段時間，然後消融於虛空中，所以迷惑的念頭出現，停留一段時間，然後消失在心相續的空性中；在現實中什麼都沒發生。
