    Dilgo Khyentse provides concise instructions on Dzogchen meditation in three parts: 1) Observe thoughts arising without judgement, letting them pass without reaction so as not to be distracted from the natural, clear state of mind. 2) Take empty awareness as the path, remaining open and carefree during both formal practice and daily life for a quick realization that confusion frees itself. 3) Alternate study, reflection and meditation as each helps the others, and practice the essential meaning with tenacity to ultimately resolve the profound meaning.

    Dilgo Khyentse's pith instructions (on Dzogchen

    Meditation)

    While mind is watching mindThough there is nothing to see, it is


    vividly clear;Uncontrived, free, and at ease in that state,Rest
    naturally, simply undistracted.Whatever thought occurs from that
    state,Without stopping or analysing, watch its very nature.Its
    arising doesn't obscure the absolute nature;Whatever occurs,
    relax right there.Don't follow thoughts about the past,Don't
    anticipate thoughts about the future,Directly transcend the
    external world;That is called the 'four parts without three.'If you
    maintain this recognition of thoughts,You will feel that they do
    not truly begin, remain, or end.Though you notice them, they
    have no effect on your true nature;That is the bare natural state,
    the way it is.If you take that empty awareness, open and
    carefree, as the path,All the time, during formal practice and
    afterward,You will quickly and surely acquire a confident
    realisationThat confusion is freed by itself.It is very helpful to
    mingle your mindInseparably with your teacher's;By settling in
    equipoise within that state, developing faith and devotion,You will
    meet the natural face of dharmakaya.Especially guard the
    continuity of impermanence, renunciation,And pure discipline,
    like your own eyes;Never diminish your one-pointed diligence in
    the heart of the matter,The essential yoga of the profound
    meaning.Alternating study, reflection and meditation,The one will
    help the others;Ultimately that is what you need to resolve,So
    practice the essential meaning with tenacity.May this delightful,
    sacred offering cloudOf essential pith instructionsCause you to
    gain realizationOf the definitive secret that is like space.
    MANGALAM
