The wish to become enlightened

Once the initial wish to become enlightened arises in the mind, something happens unconsciously within us. At first, we may actually work against this wish, and create more suffering for ourselves, but it is through this suffering that we can eliminate many obstacles and wake up. -Tarthang Tulku, Openness Mind.

Open awareness

Open awareness is accessible to all who search for it. It can always be reached by dwelling into the nature of experience. Our experience can take us far beyond our ordinary thinking, seeing and being. It can take us to enlightenment itself. -Tarthang Tulku, Openness Mind.
