“Love is the sunlight of the mind” ~ H.E. Garchen Rinpoche

~


The following is a call to go beyond the self-grasping veils- to really seeing. True seeing from the heart of mind awareness- the earth and all its inhabitants around us. Can you help? Or will you help? Journey a bit deeper and uncover the true treasures that await there. The truly inexhaustible/ limitless qualities within.

Help others discover those too, beyond being caught in unaware self-clinging – cause of suffering. What is needed is clear focus in education, continued throughout life, on the cultivation and practice habits, of first developing a good relationship with the inner room, and inner qualities which takes care of the mind and heart.

Connecting with inner awareness; letting the true-light of inner qualities of love, compassion, insight and so forth, shine forth – warming from the inside-out, (clean energy).

“The Inner Heart-Calling That Cuts the Knot of Self-Grasping”

A Tibetan‑type Dharma story‑poem

In a valley where the mountain
kissed the clouds with quiet grace,
lived a monk named Tsering Loden
with a soft and steady pace.

He carried no scriptures
For he knew them by heart—
just a bowl, a smile, a whisper:
“May the end of suffering depart.”

One day he met a traveler
whose eyes were dim with war,
who said, “The world is tangled,
and the knots just grow once more.

There’s hunger in the cities,
there are children lost to fear,
and every time we try to help,
red tape pulls us from the near.”

Tsering bowed in silence,
then he drew upon the ground
a circle made of simple lines
that wrapped the world around.

“This knot,” he said, “is empty—
it exists because we cling
to borders, rules, and titles
and the weight of ‘mine’ and ‘king.’

But compassion is a blade
that no paper cage can bind;
it cuts through every barrier
that the frightened human mind

-tries to build to feel protected
from the truth we all ignore:
that the hunger of one stranger
is the hunger of the core.”

The traveler felt the stillness
as the mountain air alive
and the monk continued softly:
“Peace, just won’t arrive.

It’s a seed in every moment,
in each breath we choose to take.
War dissolves when hearts awaken,
when we give for giving’s sake.

So walk not with permission,
walk not waiting for a sign—
feed the hungry where you find them,
tend the wounded in your line.

Cut the knot with mindful action,
not with anger, not with blame.
Let your kindness be the fire
that no system can contain.”

And the traveler, now lighter,
took the teaching like a flame,
carrying it through every village, town and country
till the world was not the same.For a single act of mercy
spreads like ripples on a lake—
and the knots that bind the many
loosen each time one heart wakes.

In Tibetan Buddha Dharma there is no “I” ultimately, only as relative convention. (A merely imputed label on body and mind). The practice method is intention and action of dharma. Effort until awakening- indivisible union of non-dual awareness of compassionate wisdom method is realised and continuance of bodhisattva activities.

Most simply, respecting/ abiding by the natural law of phenomena in one’s inner room in awareness. Developing inner qualities and sharing those with others.

It is due to our human inner awareness qualities/ connection- activities that we now have the immeasurable fortune of a precious human life. What are we doing with that? Does it reflect that understanding in our day to day actions in life? Whether living in heart-mind connection, or not; this then gives rise to such experiences, due to the infallible nature of cause, conditions and effects relationships.

Deepest heart for all the holy beings, teachers of the sacred dharma and so forth. May all your enlightened activities flourish until the end of samsara’s (negative/ unaware self-clinging mind) suffering.






A Summary Verse

In a valley where the mountains kept their silence deep and wide,
Lived a wanderer who carried storms and sunlight side by side.
He walked the path of moments, each a seed he chose to sow,
Learning how the winds of karma shape the fields where beings grow.

He once believed his footsteps were a fate he couldn’t bend,
But teachers whispered softly, “Every breath can turn or mend.” 
So he watched the rise of anger like a fire in the night,
And with mindful, steady presence turned its blaze into radiant light.

He met desire as a river pulling fiercely toward the sea,
But awareness stood beside him saying, “Let it flow, and you stay free.” 
He bowed to fear like thunder, not resisting its loud call,
And found compassion blooming in the heart that held it all.

Through valleys green with patience and through forests thick with doubt,
He practiced quiet kindness when the world felt turned about.
He learned the art of giving with no tally kept inside,
And found that open‑handedness dissolved the knots of pride.

The seasons turned like prayer wheels spinning wisdom through the air,
And the wanderer discovered that the path always was there.
Not in distant peaks of insight, not in temples made of stone,
But in each small act of presence where the mind stands clear, alone.

One dawn he reached a clearing where the sky felt wide and true,
And realized that awareness was the home he always knew.
Karma’s winds still circled, but they no longer pulled him blind—
For the one who sees with clarity is no longer bound in mind.

So he walked on, light‑hearted, with a peace both deep and mild,
A traveler who’d learned that every moment shapes the wild.
And the mountains whispered softly as he passed beneath their dome:
“The path you walk with open eyes becomes the path that leads you home.”
