- I prostrate to Gautama,
- Who, out of compassion,
- Taught the sacred Dharma
- That leads to the relinquishing of all views.

THE FOUNDATION OF EMPTINESS ~ YESHI DORJE (SIMHA)
The foundation of Emptiness is empty of inherent independent self true existence
Like two eyes of the Buddha interdependent origination wisdom and compassion are like the two wings of the bird
And compassion to the sentient beings is inseparable from emptiness
Seeing that PHENOMENA and SELF doesn't exist truly, solidly ,separately, Independently is the root of the path
Contemplating on this leads to cessation of suffering and leads to the truth of the path
Please bless me to see lack of inherent independent true existence
Understanding that the all phenomena five aggregates has no true inherent true existence
All the things that we see, hear, feel, imagine are only imputed to certain trueness is conventional truth...
Water is lacking independent wateriness self existence...
what is water to human
Puss and blood to hungry ghost
Nectar to the Gods
Water itself has no true self independent nature
Due to nature of Karma different beings perceive hallucinated independent reality
Seeing the world as truly independently existent throws us into endless cycle of pain and misery
Like a silkworm in a deep sleep weaving its illusory world of imaginations , hopes and fears trapped in cocoon of its own unawareness
Please bless me to exhaust these appearances free mind from all this imagination...
And Meditate on Emptiness of truly existing separate independent self and Emptiness of truly existing independent phenomena...
Every unhappy state of mind is necessarily a ignorant state of mind
Ignorant mind Viewing objects independent eternalism existence is the root of wrong view.
Ignorant mind Viewing objects doesn't at all exist is extreme of nihilism wrong view...
Wisdom mind Finds the middle way is to views things arise inter dependently is the right view...
with every passing breath a moment closer to death
Breaking the cocoon of confined doubts and hesitations let me give up
belief in any independent true existence...
And Meditate on Emptiness of inherent independent self and Emptiness of truly existing independent phenomena...
Like different rivers all the river of purification , river of accumulation of merit, river of blessing inspiration and river of contemplation flow into ocean of profound realization of emptiness
What didn't exist before ... Now it exists dependent on the Mind
So it doesn't exist separately,independently... therefore it doesn't exist truly
Please bless me ROOT GURU...Let this truth sunk into depths of my heart and purify my
hallucinated mind stream...
