Essence: 1 Heart, 2 Gates
1 Heart
There is one eternal heart—no beginning, no end. It’s pure, and in that purity lies true security.
2 Gates
The first gate is the Blind Gate. It’s connected to the limitless web of causation and illusion, the “I.” In this gate, we experience all kinds of suffering, but we find no real security.
The second is the Awakening Gate, which holds two parts of wisdom Dharma.
- Returning to Essence: This part is about becoming aware of our true, eternal essence. Here, we discover that security has always been present. This is the first step in developing wisdom. 💚☸️
- Developing Wisdom and Compassion: In this part, we develop all forms of wisdom and compassion Dharmas. We become aware of the boundless security that comes from the four eternal hearts and the six Bodhisattva characters. This is Buddha’s ability. ☸️🙏🕉️☯️🍀🐉
Both paths lead to wisdom, but the choice lies in which gate we walk through.
