Powerful and Beneficial

Clarity is a more comprehensive type of intelligence; it contains both thoughts and no thoughts and is more powerful and beneficial than thought and emotion-driven thinking and action. By relying on clarity for short moments, intelligence is trained up to use clarity as its basis.

Clarity

The state of having no thoughts is fuelled by clarity; likewise, thoughts are fuelled by clarity. Clarity is present when there are no thoughts and clarity is present when there are thoughts; clarity is all-pervasive.

Open Like the Clear Sky

To recognize clarity very directly, stop thinking—just for a moment. What remains? A sense of alertness, clarity and cognizance remains, powerful clarity and alertness that is open like a clear sky. Now, whenever you seem to forget what clarity is, it will be easy for you to specify it, until it becomes obvious and primary all the time.

A Short Moment of Clarity

A short moment of clarity can be likened to pressing a button and getting a specific effect. For example, you press a lamp switch and the light goes on. The area is flooded with light. Similarly, in a short moment of clarity you seize the power of clarity to contribute to all aspects of everyday life.

There are certain benefits that come from short moments of awareness, repeated many times. One benefit is complete mental and emotional stability and clarity. In clarity, there is profound intelligence and we are introduced to it right on the spot wherever we are.

Ultimate Comfort & Well-Being

Points of view are all equally self-presentations of clarity, and no matter their description, they pose no promise and they pose no threat. They are not threatening, nor are they something that is going to provide us comfort and well-being. The only place we’ll ever find ultimate comfort and well-being is in the clarity of awareness.

Present in All Thinking

Another crucial factor in the recognition of clarity is that clarity is equally present in all thinking—pleasant thinking and disturbing thoughts. Trying to get into a pleasant state is not what clarity is.

Freedom in Immediate Perception

There is freedom in the immediate perception of “not thinking” as equally as there is freedom in the immediate perception of “thinking.”

Simple

Rather than trying to get into a state of not thinking and calling it “awareness” or “clarity,” see that the clarity of awareness is present in every perception, whether there is thinking or no thinking. This keeps it very simple.

Uncontrived and Natural

By taking a short moment of awareness, we ensure that awareness is uncontrived and natural.

The Basis of Every Perception

Short Moments of Clarity

Continue to take short moments of clarity, leaving everything as it is, whenever you remember to do so, until clarity is continuous at all times.

When the next thought comes, it appears due to the clarity and alertness of awareness. This is similar to the vast sky being present regardless of the presence of what appears within it.

Just rest the mind and body naturally, without pushing away thoughts, without seeking anything. This is all that is required, whether activity is strenuous, relaxed or in-between. What remains is clarity and alertness that is open like a clear sky. This is what awareness is!

Instinctive Recognition of Awareness

Awareness, relaxed and enormously potent, is the source of mental and emotional stability, insight and skillful qualities and activities. By the power of instinctive recognition of awareness, these become increasingly evident.

It makes no Difference

It makes no difference what points of view arise. In awareness, they vanish naturally, leaving no trace, like a line drawn in the sky.

Inseparable from Awareness

Like the color blue is inseparable from the sky, points of view are inseparable from awareness. We come to realize that no point of view has an origin independent of awareness

Awareness and Points of View

Points of view within awareness can be likened to a breeze blowing through the air. The breeze and the air are inseparable. Both are air

Always Present Awareness

At the very moment points of view form, recognize always present awareness.

Awareness is Obvious

When we stop thinking for a moment, the clarity of awareness is obvious. This clarity that is present when we are not thinking, is also present when we are thinking. All thoughts appear and vanish naturally, like the flight path of a bird in the sky.

The Basis of All Perceptions

Awareness is the basis of all perceptions. Without awareness, there wouldn’t be knowledge of anything.

Awareness is Essential

Awareness is the key point of our existence. It is the primary faculty through which we know that we exist. It would be impossible to know anything at all without awareness. Awareness is essential to every single perception.

Ultimate Comfort

The only place we’ll ever find ultimate comfort and well-being is in the clarity of awareness.

Long Term Benefit

Beneficial Power

The Most Important Choice

The most important choice in every moment is this choice: clarity or micromanagement of experience. It is only in allowing experience to be as it is that it spontaneously self-releases in radiant clarity.

Clarity

When thoughts and emotions are allowed to be as they are, a vast expanse of clarity and energy spontaneously arises. Suddenly, there is a wide range of solutions that never existed before.

Bright Sunlight

All experience is spontaneously outshone by clarity. This is similar to bright sunlight suddenly outshining all the planets and stars that had been evident at night.

Glorious and Spontaneous

Clarity is never distracted nor affected by appearances, including birth, life and death, waking, dreaming and sleeping. Upon the appearance of human birth, life and death, there is simply the basic space of natural perfection—the glorious and spontaneous self-release of the here-and-now.

As It Is

In all thoughts, emotions, sensations and experiences, it is clarity that is unavoidably present. Clarity is simply as it is.

Natural Perfection

Natural perfection is present in phenomena, and phenomena are present in natural perfection. There is no natural perfection that is separate or apart from phenomena, and there are no phenomena that are separate or apart from natural perfection.

Tremendous Energy

We have tremendous energy to be of benefit to all. We see how beneficial
our life can really be and how much we have to contribute. We see that
it’s possible to contribute in a relaxed way from a very profound level of
intelligence that is completely at ease and that has nothing to prove. It’s
very simple.

The Balanced View of Clarity

We tap into our innate strengths, gifts and talents. This is part of the shift from obsessive self-centered concern into the openness, ease and balanced view of clarity

The Ultimate Goal

Once we have been introduced to clarity, then we are satisfied with that and only need skillful ways to gain greater assurance. Actually, the introduction to clarity is the ultimate goal. Then all that there really is left to do is rely on clarity and its natural power that is of benefit to all.

Naturally Perfect

Clarity is naturally perfect and filled with beneficial qualities and activities. We are introduced to this natural perfection through our experience of the benefits of gaining assurance in clarity.

Confidence is Ensured

We simply rest the need to get involved in the flow of points of view, whenever we remember to do so.

Relax naturally. This is the recognition that all points of view are naturally present within clarity and do not need to be changed. We rely on clarity to let point of view flow along its natural course.

Life Flows Openly in Clarity

The direct experience of everyday life flows openly in clarity. There is no need to indulge, renounce, transform, refine or analyze points of view. Simply let them flow on by rather than trying to alter the course of points of view. It is clarity—the source of the dynamic energy of points of view—that is emphasized. Nothing need be done about the points of view.

The Beauty of Short Moments

Everyone and everything is already naturally powerful, regardless of the label or description. This becomes obvious in short moments. The beauty of short moments is that there is increasing confidence, increasing ease and increasing soothing energy, no matter what seems to be occurring in our lives.

By allowing all to be as it is, more and more all points of view are recognized to be inseparable from clarity—the ground of complete soothing energy.

Natural and Ease

When we take short moments, we start to experience the naturalness and ease that comes about by allowing points of view to flow on by. This is what it means to have confidence in clarity: that no matter what the points of view are, we don’t try to control them. Short moments are repeated many times.

Rely on Clarity

It is very important at the start not to push ourselves too hard and to simply rely on clarity for short moments, many times. We must remember that the fundamental purpose of short moments, many times, is to realize, maintain and develop continuity of clarity. We simply rely on clarity rather than emphasizing points of view.

Natural Warmth

We find the natural warmth, perfection, deep caring, spontaneity and clarity that is present within the natural flow of all points of view. Each point of view is an equal appearance of clarity so there is no special point of view to look for. All the points of view of the here-and-now are what clarity is.

Gaining Confidence

As we gain confidence in clarity, we’ll find that it’s easier to do whatever it is we are doing. We’ll see more interesting ways of approaching all of our tasks in all aspects of our lives.

Ease of the Basic State

It’s likely that most of your life you have felt at the whim of your thoughts and emotions to one degree or another. By gaining confidence in clarity, you start to see that clarity has mastery over all thoughts and emotions. For most people, this is discovered little by little and progress is made gradually. More and more all experience is outshone by the clarity and ease of the basic state.

An Adventure of Great Wonder

Gain Confidence in Clarity

It cannot be contrived, so there is no way to push ourselves into clarity by forcing ourselves to be clear for long periods of time. The only way to really gain confidence in clarity is through uncontrived short moments of clarity, repeated many times, until it becomes continuous.

Source of Great Ease and Well-Being

Gradually and very profoundly we increasingly realize that there is something about us that is totally reliable and a source of great ease and well-being.

Day-to-Day Clarity

It is in our practical day-to-day experience that we gain confidence in clarity. More and more we rely on our own direct experience of clarity and instinctive clarity, rather than focusing on our opinions or the opinions of others.

Soothing Energy

With short moments of clarity we come to see that there is a continuous soothing energy present throughout all daily activities. We see that we can rely on clarity, no matter what is going on.

Ultimately Reliable

Clarity is the source of all experience and is inseparable from all points of view. It offers us something that we haven’t found anywhere else in our life, and it’s something that we can count on.

Introduction to Clarity

After the introduction to clarity, it’s very important to commit to short moments of clarity as often as we remember. Short moments, repeated many times, become continuous.

When we gain confidence in clarity, it has practical results on all levels of living. When we see the power of clarity, we are simultaneously seeing our own power to benefit ourselves as that power unleashes well-being within us that we never knew was possible.

Instinctive Recognition

Confidence is gained through instinctive recognition. It is not gained through thinking about clarity or through reasoning. It is gained by the direct perception that all points of view are inseparable from clarity.

Complete Perceptual Openness

Clarity is complete perceptual openness in all experience. It is freedom in immediate perception rather than being focused on stories.

Clarity, Openness and Ease

As we go about our ordinary life, we find that we are not as willing to get involved in all the stories about our points of view. When we don’t run off after all the stories to try to describe our life, then our whole approach to life completely alters. We experience everything with increasing clarity, openness and ease.

Acknowledge Clarity

When something appears—whether it’s a thought, emotion, sensation or experience—rather than getting involved in the story about that experience, the choice is made to rely on clarity and to acknowledge clarity rather than getting involved in all the descriptions and ideas that have been used to describe everything.

The Results of Clarity

We acknowledge clarity in an uncontrived way, moment-to-moment. We become convinced of the efficacy and power of clarity by its results in our life. There wouldn’t be any other way for us to become convinced: our confidence grows when we see the results of clarity in our own lives.

A Short Moment of Clarity

In a short moment of clarity, there is no need to control the flow of points of view.

Obvious All the Time

We rely on a short moment of clarity. As we repeat these short moments again and again, clarity becomes continuous “Continuous” means short moments of clarity are no longer required; it is obvious all the time.

The Efficacy and Power of Clarity

Profound Benefit

The more confidence we gain in clarity, the more we are able to be of profound benefit in all circumstances

Our Fundamental Capacity to Rely on Clarity

We begin to learn the basic premise of relying on clarity rather than emphasizing points of view. We do this for short moments, many times, until it becomes spontaneous. We find that the solution to trying to control the unpredictable flow of points of view is our fundamental capacity to rely on clarity.

The Display of Clarity

All points of view are appearances of clarity. Points of view are unpredictable, countless and ceaseless, arising spontaneously as the display of clarity. Whatever our own circumstantial points of view may be, it is possible for us to rely on clarity and no longer be disturbed by their appearance.

Confidence in Clarity

By the power of clarity, we are not distracted by trying to control the flow of points of view. Then, when the recognition of clarity slips away, we simply repeat it again. Short moments, repeated many times, lead to confidence in clarity.

Stable in Itself

By relying on clarity we give up the right to be a victim of point of view. When short moments of clarity are repeated many times, the recognition of clarity becomes automatic and uninterrupted. It is found to be stable in itself.

Rely on Clarity

To instinctively rely on clarity is to know that points of view have their origin in clarity and do not have a separate, independent nature. All points of view are the dynamic energy of clarity.

Inherent Wisdom

We can test in our experience that it is possible to gain confidence in clarity and to rely on its inherent wisdom, love and happiness, rather than on point of view. By the power of short moments of clarity, many times, it becomes automatic, and we find relief from focusing on points of view.

Powerful Intelligence

The emphasis on points of view is replaced with the ease of relying on clarity, and we begin to live a more fulfilling and satisfying life. We find a powerful intelligence that is only available in clarity.

Dynamic Creativity

Point of view is simply allowed to be as it is—the dynamic creativity of clarity that is free in its own place. Unchanging clarity is your vantage. It is the easy way to live.

As we recognize our natural state of perfection just as it is, all effort to “find clarity” gradually ceases, and clarity is permanent and obvious at all times.
It is predominant in the natural flow of all points of view day and night and is realized to be the natural, uninterrupted flow of all points of view that appear.

This is done by relying on short moments of the clarity of awareness, repeated many times, until it becomes continuous. By the power of this simple practice we begin to recognize that clarity and points of view are inseparable, like the sky and the color blue.

Resolving in Clarity

Thoughts, emotions, sensations and all other points of view are simply appearing in clarity. Each viewpoint follows another, appearing and resolving in clarity. There is no need to try to alter their flow. Like a line drawn in the sky, they leave no trace

Complete Relief

By persisting in this one simple choice, we see benefits from the outset.
The first time we make the choice to rely on clarity rather than emphasizing points of view, we sense the power of the complete relief to be found in clarity.

Love and Satisfaction

We find that emphasizing points of view provides only temporary relief—it is never a permanent solution. We learn that it is possible to gain confidence in clarity and to live life based on its inherent intelligence, love and satisfaction.

Short Moments of Clarity

By repeatedly relying on short moments of clarity, many times, it becomes continuous. There is no need to alter the flow of points of view. “Many times” means that we need to grow more and more confident in it by repeating the short moment. This is a key point in gaining confidence in clarity.

Rely on Clarity

At the very moment points of view form, rely on clarity—serene and spacious. By the power of relying on clarity, its recognition becomes increasingly obvious, and points of view vanish naturally, like a line drawn in water.

Complete Relief

Keep it Totally Simple

Everything you think of, every emotion you have, every sensation, and all other experiences are simply points of view appearing in clarity. The more you think about it, the less you’ll instinctively realize it. There’s not a single thing to think about. Keep it totally simple

Spontaneous Intelligence

When we learn to complicate things, that’s just what we’ve learned. The more we relax, again and again, we see that clarity provides us with perfect spontaneous intelligence in all circumstances.

Keeping It Simple

It’s nice to have a simple way of talking about who we are that everyone can share within a common understanding. This is all part of keeping it simple.

A Simple Choice

Relax body and mind completely, no matter what point of view appears. Everything is totally free in the perception of it. Everything provides us with a simple choice: to recognize clarity or not.

Simply Relax

Points of view are countless, ceaseless and unpredictable. If you try to base well-being on rearranging or controlling the flow of points of view, you’ll be lost in an endless world of labels and descriptions. Simply relax.

Naturally Clear

There is nothing else that need be done about points of view. All points of view are naturally clear. We rely on the power of clarity in our everyday life.

Innate Warmth

The openness of clarity gradually brings the discovery of innate warmth towards others and the desire to be of benefit to them. We discover this by the power of relying on clarity—the one simple change that makes life easy.

Moment-to-Moment Clarity

Short moments of clarity, repeated many times, become automatic. We choose for clarity to be obvious to us or not. Moment-to-moment clarity is the most important choice we will ever make.

Clarity for Everyone

It all begins with recognizing the clarity of awareness within yourself. Then you become convinced that clarity for everyone is possible. There is no other way.

Well-being and Ease

To take short moments of clarity is to allow everything to rest. In allowing everything to rest in clarity, it becomes obvious that everything is inseparable from the basic state and is a source of well-being and ease.

This Basic State

No matter what appears, it has no nature independent of clarity. Nothing has ever existed independently, separate or apart from this basic state.

The Power of Clarity

Wherever you are, by the power of gaining confidence in clarity, you are automatically being beneficial. First you are beneficial to yourself, and then by the power of clarity, you’re automatically beneficial to others. You start to really care—about yourself and about everyone—in a very natural way.

Peace and Clarity

When we emphasize the clarity of awareness rather than points of view, we open up to the great unifying ground of peace and clarity that is the same for everyone.

The Most Important Choice

We choose for clarity to be obvious to us or not. Moment-to-moment clarity is the most important choice we will ever make.

Unending Clarity

The results of short moments of unending clarity are very powerful. We as a global human culture have finally tapped into a form of knowledge that can give us complete mental and emotional stability, clarity, insight, compassion, natural ethics and beneficial skillfulness in all situations.

Unique Intelligence

It’s this simple: If we do not rely on clarity, we never find this special intelligence. However, by the power of clarity, we find that this unique intelligence includes complete mental and emotional stability, clarity, insight, compassion, natural ethics and beneficial skillfulness in all situations.

Benefit

There are certain benefits that come from short moments of awareness, repeated many times. One benefit is complete mental and emotional stability and clarity. In clarity, there is profound intelligence and we are introduced to it right on the spot wherever we are.

Ultimate Comfort & Well-Being

Points of view are all equally self-presentations of clarity, and no matter their description, they pose no promise and they pose no threat. They are not threatening, nor are they something that is going to provide us comfort and well-being. The only place we’ll ever find ultimate comfort and well-being is in the clarity of awareness.

Present in All Thinking

Another crucial factor in the recognition of clarity is that clarity is equally present in all thinking—pleasant thinking and disturbing thoughts. Trying to get into a pleasant state is not what clarity is.

Freedom in Immediate Perception

There is freedom in the immediate perception of “not thinking” as equally as there is freedom in the immediate perception of “thinking.”

Simple

Rather than trying to get into a state of not thinking and calling it “awareness” or “clarity,” see that the clarity of awareness is present in every perception, whether there is thinking or no thinking. This keeps it very simple.

Uncontrived and Natural

By taking a short moment of awareness, we ensure that awareness is uncontrived and natural.

The Basis of Every Perception

There is no reason to complicate clarity. As clarity is the basis of every perception, it is already naturally present. It isn’t something that needs to be obtained sometime in the future. That’s why the single instruction that is needed is “short moments, repeated many times.”

Short Moments of Clarity

Continue to take short moments of clarity, leaving everything as it is, whenever you remember to do so, until clarity is continuous at all times.

Powerful Intelligence

Short moments, many times, become continuous. This exceptionally potent method grants access to a powerful intelligence and clarity that is not noticed when there is emphasis on descriptions or points of view.

Complete Relief

The very first moment of clarity already has within it the result of complete relief, mental and emotional stability, insight, compassion, self-benefit and the benefit of all. By repeatedly relying on clarity, it becomes automatic.

Simply As It Is

The flow of points of view is not altered. Everything is left simply as it is. By the power of short moments of clarity, clarity becomes increasingly obvious.

Great Power

The first time the choice is made to rely on the clarity of awareness rather than emphasizing points of view, there is a sense of the great power of complete relief to be found in clarity. By persisting in this one simple choice, benefits are seen from the outset.

Moment-to-Moment Clarity

We choose for clarity to be obvious to us or not. Moment-to-moment clarity is the most important choice we will ever make.

Ease

The innate ability to be at ease—wise, balanced and compassionate, is discovered in the clarity of awareness.

(Because of the habit of emphasizing points of view, the initial brief moments of clarity may not last long at first. In other words, there may be no real stability. It may almost immediately slip away. This is perfectly fine. That is why short moments are repeated many times until awareness becomes automatic. This is the key point in gaining confidence in clarity.)

Complete Mental and Emotional Stability

Awareness, in the immediacy of the flow of thoughts, emotions and sensations, is the source of profound insight, perfect clarity, complete mental and emotional stability, compassion and skillfulness in all situations.

Clarity and Alertness

When the next thought comes, it appears due to the clarity and alertness of awareness. This is similar to the vast sky being present regardless of the presence of what appears within it.

This is what Awareness is!

Just rest the mind and body naturally, without pushing away thoughts, without seeking anything. This is all that is required, whether activity is strenuous, relaxed or in-between. What remains is clarity and alertness that is open like a clear sky. This is what awareness is!

Instinctive Recognition of Awareness

Awareness, relaxed and enormously potent, is the source of mental and emotional stability, insight and skillful qualities and activities. By the power of instinctive recognition of awareness, these become increasingly evident.

It makes no Difference

It makes no difference what points of view arise. In awareness, they vanish naturally, leaving no trace, like a line drawn in the sky.

Inseparable from Awareness

Like the color blue is inseparable from the sky, points of view are inseparable from awareness. We come to realize that no point of view has an origin independent of awareness.

Awareness and Points of View

Points of view within awareness can be likened to a breeze blowing through the air. The breeze and the air are inseparable. Both are air

Always Present Awareness

At the very moment points of view form, recognize always present awareness.

Awareness is Obvious

When we stop thinking for a moment, the clarity of awareness is obvious. This clarity that is present when we are not thinking, is also present when we are thinking. All thoughts appear and vanish naturally, like the flight path of a bird in the sky.

The Basis of All Perceptions

Awareness is the basis of all perceptions. Without awareness, there wouldn’t be knowledge of anything.

Awareness is Essential

Awareness is the key point of our existence. It is the primary faculty through which we know that we exist. It would be impossible to know anything at all without awareness. Awareness is essential to every single perception.

Ultimate Comfort

The only place we’ll ever find ultimate comfort and well-being is in the clarity of awareness.

Relax

There is no need to find clarity. Relax. Just relax; that’s all. Clarity will effortlessly become increasingly evident.

Naturally Present

There is no need to look for clarity. There is no need to ask, “Where is it?” “Is it there or not?” There is no need to look around for clarity, which is naturally present at all times. Simply enjoy short moments of clarity and its natural continuity becomes obvious.

The Joy of Knowing

With instinctive recognition, the obviousness of clarity and the joy of certainty become evident as our fundamental basis. This is the joy of knowing that clarity is the indestructible essence of all experience

Clarity is Natural

Clarity is equally pervasive at all times like the brilliant light that fills a clear sky at high noon. Clarity is natural just as it is. We don’t need anything for that clarity to be; it is just naturally arising, naturally present. It doesn’t depend on anything.

Clarity is inseparable from Thoughts

Clarity is inseparable from the thought like the color blue is inseparable from the sky. We have a sense of clarity as the basic space of the thought—the basic space of the point of view—itself.

Instinctive Clarity

Instinctive clarity—depend only on that. Whether there is thought or no thought, simply rely on complete perceptual openness. Clarity itself is the key point. The key point is whether there is instinctive recognition of clarity or not, not in whether there is the presence or absence of thoughts.

Enjoy Clarity

All thoughts are the natural flow of clear awareness. Do not try to change the thoughts. Simply enjoy clarity rather than building more confidence in the thoughts themselves.

Rely on Clarity

In the beginning, instinctive clarity may last two or three seconds; maybe ten seconds. The short moments of recognition naturally grow longer. We relax and trust the way and pace of clarity in ourselves. We rely on clarity to let experience flow along its natural course.

Clarity is Complete

A short moment of clarity is complete. It is free from involvement in hope and fear, ups and downs and other extremes of points of view.

Clarity is Naturally Present

If there is a moment of clarity or not it's fine. If there is complete distraction by thoughts, that’s fine. If there is distraction, simply relax in a natural way as soon as it is noticed that there is distraction. This is a short moment of clarity. By repeating it again and again, it is recognized that it is always present. Clarity is naturally present whether there is distraction or not. This is how easy clarity is!

Absolute Simplicity

This is powerful clarity that has nothing to guard or defend. The natural ease of clarity is wide open in all points of view. It is absolute simplicity and spaciousness of mind.

Instinctive Clarity

Clarity is self-maintained amidst the flow of points of view. Then, if the recognition of clarity slips away, it is simply repeated again. Short moments, repeated many times, acknowledge instinctive clarity. It is simply found to be true in our experience.

Relief

By the power of short moments of clarity, many times, it becomes continuous. There is relief from belief in points of view. When short moments of clarity are repeated many times, it is recognized to be continuous and uninterrupted. It is found to be stable in itself.

Relying on Clarity

Relying on clarity leads to spontaneous benefit and relying on points of view leads to confusion and tension. Instinctive clarity elicits inherent peace, love, happiness and permanent well-being.

Beneficial Qualities

A tightly constructed personal identity is built by accumulating points of view. True, uncontrived identity is discovered in clarity and its beneficial qualities and activities.

Crystal Clear Openness

When points of view are emphasized, it is assumed that they have a power of their own. Instinctive clarity is to know that a point of view has its only origin in crystal clear openness. All points of view have their source in clarity and no point of view can be found to have an independent nature.

Well-Being Comes from Clarity

Well-being comes from clarity rather than regulating points of view. Simple, straightforward clarity is enriching and empowering. It exhausts harmful psychological and behavioral patterns and simultaneously perfects beneficial qualities and activities.

Fully Embrace All of Life

Clarity is not a way of avoiding everyday life. It is a way to fully embrace all of life from the vantage of a balanced view.

Short Moments of Clarity

Clarity is self-affirming. In short moments of clarity, we reaffirm the presence of clarity in all our experience. We begin to gain confidence in clarity for self-benefit, and eventually that inspires us to naturally be of benefit to all. Short moments of clarity: this is a very practical approach.

Naturally at Ease

The points of view just flow along doing whatever they do. This is the key point. Clarity is naturally at ease. Everything rests in the clear view. Leave it as it is.

Emphasis on Clarity

If we have positive points of view, that’s fine. If we have negative points of view, that’s fine. There is no need to control the natural flow of points of view. Place the emphasis on clarity—that’s all.

Rely on Clarity

Rely on clarity to the best of your ability and encourage yourself to continue with short moments of clarity until it is obvious at all times.

Clarity is Continuous

Relax in a short moment of clarity, again and again, in all situations, and increasingly there will be no need to rely on short moments. Clarity is continuous without any effort.

Resting the Mind

We don’t need all kinds of ways to find clarity. Nothing is needed. Allow the mind to rest naturally, just as it is. Resting the mind naturally opens up the balanced view, alert and spacious shining from within.

Relax Naturally

Relax naturally, alert and clear, just like that. No need to be anywhere special or hold the body in any special position. Nothing need be done. With resting the mind and body completely for short moments repeatedly, the presence of clarity intensifies and increases over time.

Completely Relaxed

Enjoying short moments of clarity is like finishing a hard day’s work or relaxing after a warm and soothing bath. We are completely relaxed with nothing more to do.

Spacious Clarity

We can enjoy spacious clarity because our view is the pervasive vantage of clarity. We don’t have to find it. That is why we can rely on clarity.

Acknowledge Clarity

All beings already possess clarity. It is not that we don't have it and hope to get it at some point in the future. We already are clear. Briefly acknowledge clarity, again and again, and it becomes obvious all of the time.

Powerful Intelligence

Short moments, many times, become continuous. This exceptionally potent method grants access to a powerful intelligence that is not noticed when there is emphasis on points of view, so you continue on, just like that, leaving everything as it is, whenever you recall to do so, until clarity is continuous at all times.
