NATURAL PRESENCE

Since all experiences are Enlightenment -
the shining radiance of Awareness,
There’s no need to change this experience into a different, better one.
See the true nature of experience.

Since gain and loss, success and failure, ignorance or enlightenment…
are just labels pasted onto this natural radiance,
There is nothing to achieve, and nothing to lose.
No need to strive, nor to fear losing anything.

Since all thoughts are lightning strikes,
appearing and disappearing by themselves in the sky of Awareness,
There’s no need to chase after thoughts, nor to resist them.
Let thoughts self-liberate.

When asking: “Who is aware of these thoughts?”
No one is there.
But the space that is aware of them
Is clear and vast like the sky.
Be naturally present in it.

When you truly touch your true Nature,
Where all phenomena have the same flavor as space
You don’t need any reason
to remain in it at all.

No need for more “view,” “antidote,” “meditation,” or “realization”
You stay
because there is simply nowhere else to go.
