檢視 Clear light 的原始碼

The fundamental innate mind of '''clear light''' (Tib. འོད་གསལ་, [[Wyl.]] ''‘od gsal'') is considered to be the [[nature of mind]], or the ultimate root of consciousness, and can be understood at several levels: according to the teachings of the [[sutra]] system, in the context of the [[Tantra|tantric]] teachings, and in the context of [[Dzogchen]].

The unique feature of the Dzogchen approach is that right from the beginning you make the experience of clear light itself manifest, almost as if it were something tangible – a direct, bare experience of clear light. <ref>His Holiness the [[Dalai Lama]] , ''Dzogchen – The Heart Essence of the Great Perfection'', published by Snow Lion. ISBN 1-55939-156-1.</ref>

In Dzogchen, on the basis of the clear light itself, the way in which the clear light abides is made vivid and certain by the aspect of [[rigpa]] or knowing. This is free from any overlay of delusion and from any corrupting effect, due to conceptual thoughts, that will inhibit the experience of clear light. <ref>Dodrupchen Jikme Tenpe Nyima in ''Dzogchen – The Heart Essence of the Great Perfection.''</ref>

For the nature of mind is clear light.
