"When something unwanted falls into your lap, you have a negative reaction, such as anger, dislike, envy, upset, irritation, anxiety, depression, mental anguish, fear of death and rebirth.
"When such reactions arise as a display due to dynamic energy, identify them as such. Do not renounce them, indulge in them, refine them, transform them, look at them, or meditate on them.
Rather, rest spontaneously, in the single, naturally settled state of evenness, free of the resolution and proliferation of conceptual frameworks.
Mind as pure expanse of space, in which things vanish naturally and leave no trace, arises as intensity within, naturally lucid."
