"Learn to look without imagination, to listen without distortion: that is all. Stop attributing names and shapes to the essentially nameless and formless, realize that every mode of perception is subjective, that what is seen or heard, touched or smelled, felt or thought,expected or imagined, is in the mind and not in reality, and you will experience peace and freedom from fear." - Nisargadatta Maharaj

Virupa: Lada
Mahasiddha Virupa
By detaching itself from the duality
of observation and observer,
the mind achieves self-liberation
from division;
By thus smashing the contrived practitioner,
the mind frees itself from striving and seeking;
By discarding the concern for the fruit
of inner development, the meditator
unshackles himself from hope and fear;
By eliminating the sense of the "self" or the "I",
the mind emerges victorious in its battle
against inner adversaries;
By dismantling the clinging to substance,
the meditator will gain liberation from
both samsara and nirvana.
