The Four Infallible Guiding Stars and the Four Unshakable Bolts

EHMAHO! Once again, sons and daughters of my heart, listen with devotion and respect! Here is instruction on the four infallible guiding stars. The infallible guiding star of vision is called a guiding star because of its unfailing radiance: it is vivid perception of the here and now. The infallible guiding star of meditation is called a guiding star because of its unfailing radiance: it is vivid perception of the here and now. The guiding star of action is called a guiding star because of its unfailing radiance: it is vivid perception of the here and now. The infallible guiding star of the goal is called a guiding star because of its unfailing radiance: it is vivid perception of the here and now.

Here is instruction on the four Unshakable bolts. The Unshakable bolt of unchangeable vision is vivid perception of the here and now, and it is called an Unshakable bolt because of its permanence throughout past, present, and future. The Unshakable bolt of unchangeable meditation is vivid perception of the here and now, and it is called an Unshakable bolt because of its permanence throughout past, present, and future. The Unshakable bolt of unchangeable conduct is vivid perception of the here and now, and it is called an Unshakable bolt because of its permanence throughout past, present, and future. The Unshakable bolt of the unchangeable goal is vivid perception of the here and now, and it is called an Unshakable bolt because of its permanence throughout past, present, and future.

There are a vast number of different visions, but in the self-existent intrinsic awareness of the here and now, which is pure awareness, there is no duality of vision and viewer. Do not look at the vision but look for the viewer. Looking for the creator of the vision, if you fail to find him, then your vision is at the point of resolution. This vision in which there is nothing at all to see, but which is not a blank nothingness of ultimate void, is vivid and unalloyed perception of the here and now: this is Dzogchen vision.

There are innumerable dissimilar methods of meditation, but in the unobstructed clarity, which is ordinary perception of the here and now, there is no duality of meditation and meditator. Do not perform the meditation but look for the meditator. Searching for the meditator, if you fail to find him, then your meditation is at the point of resolution. This meditation in which there is no meditating whatsoever, free of depression and elation, free of cloudy vision and sluggishness, is the natural radiance and unalloyed perception of the here and now — it is meditation fixed in uncontrived sameness.

There is an infinite variety of different modes of behavior, but in the cosmic seed of intrinsic awareness and pure awareness there is no duality of action and actor. Do not perform the action but look for the actor. Searching for the actor, if you fail to find him, then your conduct is at the point of resolution.
