The Nechung Oracle Program Thought for the Moment...

The mind of clear light

  Is spiritual practice really worthwhile?  Is it really possible to eliminate
from within ourselves the forces that give rise to suffering?  As is said,
"The ultimate nature of mind is clear light." Consciousness has many
levels, and although the coarser levels are affected by the defiling forces,
the most subtle level remains free of gross negativities.  In the Vajrayana
this subtle level of consciousness is called the mind of clear light.
  The delusions and emotional afflictions as well as the dualistic mind of
right and wrong, love and hatred, etc., are associated only with the coarse
levels of consciousness.  At the moment, we are totally absorbed in the
interplay of these coarse states, so we must begin our practice by working
within them.  This means consciously encouraging love over hate, patience in
place of anger, emotional freedom rather than attachment, kindness over
violence, and so forth.  Doing this brings immediate peace and calm to the
mind, thus making higher meditation possible.
  Then, because grasping at a self and at phenomena as being truly existent is
the cause of all the vast range of distorted states of mind, one cultivates
the wisdom that eliminates this ego-grasping.  To overcome ego-grasping is to
overcome the entire host of mental distortions.
  -- H.H. the Dalai Lama
