"At first a yogi feels his mind Is tumbling like a waterfall; In mid-course, like the Ganges It flows on slow and gentle; In the end, it is a great Vast ocean, where the Lights Of Son and Mother merge in one."

"Quien se aferra a la mente, no ve la verdad de lo que está más allá de la mente.
Quien se esfuerza en practicar el dharma, no encuentra la verdad que está más allá de la práctica.
Para conocer lo que está más allá de ambas, mente y práctica, uno debe cortar de raíz la mente y observarlo todo en total desnudez.
De esta forma, uno deja de lado toda distinción y permanece tranquilo"
Tilopa
Tumblr media
Tilopa fue un gurú nacido en Bengala hoy Bangladesh en el año 988 de nuestra era. Llevó sus enseñanzas tántricas desde la India hasta el Tibet y se le atribuye el desarrollo de la doctrina mahamudra o método budista que conduce a la naturaleza propia de la mente estabilizada, no dual y sin apego.
Reconocido como fundador de una de las seis escuelas del Budismo Tibetano el denominado linaje Kagyu.
De acuerdo con algunas fuentes Tilopa nació en una familia real, la cual abandonó para adoptar una existencia errante de mendigo, recibiendo enseñanzas de diversos gurús a lo largo de su vida.
De acuerdo con una leyenda, se dice que recibió las enseñanzas del mahamudra directamente del Buda Vajradhara.
Se cuenta que Tilopa le dió seis consejos a su discípulo Naropa los cuales hablan de la mente liberada carente de tiempo, sin apegos ni juicios, como un medio para alcanzar el estado de Buda.
“Deja ir lo que ya pasó”, “Deja ir lo que pueda pasar”, “Deja ir lo que sucede ahora”, “No trates de interpretar nada”, “No trates de hacer que algo suceda”, “Relájate ahora y descansa”.

Be Attentively Inattentive - Osho
This is what tantra says: the royal way – behave like a king, not like a soldier. There is nobody on top of you to force you and order you; there should not be really a style of life. That is the royal way. You should live moment to moment, enjoying moment to moment – spontaneity should be the way. And why bother about tomorrow? – This moment is enough. Live it! Live it in totality. Respond, but…

Aforismi sulla meditazione – 4°
Aforismi sulla meditazione – 4°
La meditazione dovrebbe essere, per certi versi e per determinati gruppi d’individui, un esercizio metodico. Senonché, in un secondo momento, via via che si procede lungo l’incommensurabile via maestra della propria auto-realizzazione, il suo approfondimento sarà, in guisa del tutto spontanea, piuttosto progressivo. Seguono alcuni utili aforismi che ne chiariscono quei punti che, al momento, ci…

Allow the polluted water of thoughts to clear. Neither negate nor affirm appearances, leave them as they are. If there is no rejecting or accepting, appearances and possibilities liberate as the mahamudra.

-Yogi's Mind-

In mid-course, like the Ganges It flows on slow and gentle;
In the end, it is a great vast ocean,
Where the lights of son and mother merge in one."

The famous meditation master Tilopa once said to his student Naropa: "Son, it is not appearances that bind you, it is your Shenpa to them." Shenpa is a Tibetan term that refers to all the grasping and aversion we have to experience - all the push and pull.
So what Tilopa is suggesting, is that it is not the thoughts and emotions that rough you up, but rather all of our preferences and clinging

"True illuminates have no dreams. Dreams are for those who are asleep. True illuminates live in the higher worlds, out of the physical body, in a state of intensified wakefulness without ever dreaming." - Samael Aun Weor
Dream Yoga
The effort to awaken the consciousness in the dream state is called Dream Yoga. This term is most known from the tradition of Tilopa, Naropa, Marpa, and Milarepa, although the tradition of Niguma also includes Dream Yoga. Yoga comes from the Sanskrit word "yug," which means to "reunite" or "yoke together." This is the same as the root of our word religion, the Latin word "religare,"which means "to bind together." What is sought in both cases is the union of our consciousness with its source, but this can only happen when our consciousness is awakened and purified of all that is unclean.
The yogic tradition of Tilopa has been maintained in Tibetan Buddhism for hundreds of years. It is a series of teachings of which dream yoga is a vital part. It has been practiced and taught by all the Dalai Lamas, and such great initiates as Tsongkhapa and Milarepa.
The basic goal of Dream Yoga is to harness the power of the dream state and use it to awaken the consciousness. You can learn more about this by reading scriptures from the tradition.
