Khenpo Tsultrim
Gyamtso Rinpoche
Commentary On In Praise Of Dharmadhatu
"The mind is also the dharmadhatu
that is free from bondage and free from liberation. It may appear sometimes
that the mind is bound up or tied up by mental afflictions, mental anguish or pain.
However, the true nature of mind is never bound by anything."

Ponlop Rinpoche

of color and freshness." Go to Article (excerpt).
