Allgemeines Curriculum von Khenchen Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche
«Die Essence des Buddha-Dharma ist Gleichheit oder Gleichwertigkeit.
Studiert Gleichwertigkeit!
Alle Studien und Eingewöhnung sollten in diesem Bewusstsein aufgehen.»

(Khen Rinpoche)
Appearance-emptiness equality
by Khenchen Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche
«Not to know the equality of appearance-emptiness
And get attached to appearances alone is delusion.
But to get attached to emptiness alone is delusion too.
If you know the equality of appearance-emptiness
There‘s no need to get caught up in or give up phenomena.
Those appearances and emptiness, -
What you must do is to rest in the spaciousness
Of the equality of appearance-emptiness.»
