Immovable meditation.

Outwardly, body is unwavering like a mountain.
Internally, not following thoughts, not altering the mind.
Secretly, the profound stage of original purity.
From this immovable state, all that appears is naturally arising,
without emotion or reaction everything dissolves into the expanse,
arising from and dissolving into original purity. 

First, settle into the nature of the mind.

First, introduce the nature of the mind,
then you will be able to be introduced to rigpa.

Initially, you introduce the nature and fixation of ordinary mind.  If you recognize the nature of ordinary appearances and grasping, you can recognize the basis which is the nature of the mind.  Once you have a glimpse, you need to get rid of agitation and dullness in order to stabilize the experience of the nature of mind. 

After settling into the nature of mind, you enter into unwavering meditation to realize rigpa.  By dissolving all appearances into basic space, attachment and aversion dissolve and you enjoy the one taste that is the natural radiance of rigpa. 

Upadesha from Younge Khachab Rinpoche June 2007

Postscript: Awaiting your fate.

As a postscript while you wait,

Does it matter?

If you are going to live to see another day, how will you spend it?
If you are not and your time has come, what now?

Your freedom from the confines of your fate only comes right now.  There is no other time to be free.  The cycle is perpetuated right now, while you wait.  My own fear, doubt and uncertainty perpetuate the cycle.

Whether you have much time or little is not the point, the point is to be free as it arises.

Liberation upon arising means that you are not overcome by your fate, nor overcome by the world.  You take it as it comes- the good, the bad and the ugly.

Let it be, as it is.  

Open.  Unwavering.  Fearless.
