It is like observing the sky without the trace of birds\, or the crisscross of jet planes. You can merge your consciousness in the state of Mahamudra\, beyond words and thoughts. The true nature of the mind is raw or naked awareness. It is an uncovered\, untamed and unaltered state\, without fabrication. As the great teacher Gampopa put it\, “It cannot be explained intellectually\, but follow the instructions of the Guru and practise according to the lineage. \n\n\n\nMahamudra is a practice that leads us to experience the true nature of our own mind\, unmediated. The sources of the Mahamudra teaching go all the way back to the Buddha’s Prajnaparamita\, or the Heart Sutra\, and also to the Samadhi Raja\, or the King of Concentration Sutra. In Tibetan it is known as Teng Nye Zin Gyalpoe Do. These Sutrasstate that the nature of all phenomena is Mahamudra. According to the Heart Sutra: \n\n\n\n“Mind is emptiness and emptiness is also mind. There is no mind other than emptiness\, no emptiness other than the mind”. \n\n\n\nMahamudra is the method of realizing the clear light wisdom of Shunyata and accomplishing directly and vividly what we call the ‘meaning clear light’. In its Tantric aspect\, the clear light nature of the mind is called ‘ultimate short AH’. It means the uncultivated mind\, the unspoiled and pure mind.
