All phenomena arise as embellishing rainbows for the skylike nature of mind!


"All the phenomena of samsara and nirvana,
What appears and what exists,
Are no more than rainbows in an empty sky . . .
No matter how they may appear, they are nothing in themselves;
They arise as embellishing ornaments
For the skylike nature of mind - wondrous!


Shabkar Tsogdruk Rangdrol,
19th century Tibetan wandering yogi and poet
