We are like lightning bugs circling a field in the summer.
Without clear goals and the knowledge to implement them, the energy we expend has little value and few results.

This is the basic message.

This may also describe those days in the early 70s when Dharma was seeded in Boulder by Trungpa Rinpoche.
But not the even earlier arrival in Berkeley, and the vast activity of Tarthang Tulku Rinpoche.

The mind's own nature is emptiness, luminosity, and bliss.
It is free from all thought, yet embraces all things.

As the Buddha Nature pervades all beings;
Not a single being is unsuitable.

Look naturally at the essence of your own mind,
Free from arising, abiding, & ceasing.
By looking this way, you see Awareness/Emptiness, free of clinging and fixation, the naked Dharmatā.
This is the true Guru Rinpoche of definitive meaning.

- Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

The bizarre quantum paradox of 'negative time' Cause is usually followed by effect, but in the quantum world, time's sequencing is not so straightforward.

Let go of the one having thoughts;
And you become the one witnessing thoughts.
