Pure Consciousness...

"So, what else can we be except pure consciousness?

This is the basis of the famous statement made by the Buddhist logician Dharmakirti that everyone can be enlightened since the nature of pure consciousness is luminous. There is nothing to be discovered as ultimate truth beyond pure consciousness.

That’s all there is.

Every other notion of truth is simply an elaboration of ideas and concepts. Pure consciousness is not the effect of any cause. If it were the effect of a cause, it would simply be another ordinary thing with a beginning and an end.

It is present in each of us, and it is not bound by time or space. It is free from everything and it is present in everyone at this very moment. It is the ground of our being, and who we are in the ultimate sense."
