16/11/08. James Low teaching in Macclesfield at the former Khandroling Buddhist Centre.
James concludes Garab Dorje's second point and then speaks about his third point.
"The central question from the dzogchen point of view is, who is the one who needs to be reassured that they are doing okay? Who is the one who is anxious and why should we trust other people anyway? Trusting other people means to believe that their story gives us an accurate account about ourselves. Now, the Tibetan dharma teachings say that our real nature is 'ma cho to tral'. 'Ma cho' means it is not artificial, it cannot be contained by any kind of mental confectionery, it's not something elaborated through thought.'To tral' means that it is ungraspable; it's not a relative thing built up by placing it next to other things; it's not part of a pattern. It is also said that this nature is 'ma sam jo me', beyond any possibility of speaking or describing it. Now if that is our nature, what does it mean when someone tells us that we are doing fine?What is that? Who is doing fine?"
