[๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ก๐ ๐ค๐ฅ:] [+ added verse]
.
24. Watch, my friends, the objects that appear.
All are unoriginate, all equal in their emptiness—
Just as various things reflected in a glass
Are one and all the same, the mirror’s single sheen.
.
25. Watch the consciousness discerning these appearances.
The mind is like the sky, beyond assertion and negation.
And just as in the sky the clouds take shape and then dissolve,
With no change to the sky, which stays forever pure,
The nature of the mind is likewise always pure;
It is primordially enlightened,
Uncreated, naturally present, ultimate reality.
.
[Added: 26. The object and the mind itself are not two things.
They’re one in primal purity.
Therein, adopting and rejecting are not two.
There’s no one-sided affirmation or denial.
All appearance is devoid of true existence;
All arising is by nature empty.
Everything is equal and beyond all reference.]

(Note: In this text the SUBJECT is the awakened-mind / primordial-awareness / Ground / Suchness / the true nature of Reality as it is / the Union of the Two Truths.
The OBJECT are all appearances, as spontaneous natural manifestations of the Ground.
Genuine-emptiness free from all extremes & middle is simply the inconceivable Union of the Two Truths / Suchness / Ground.
So, all manifestations are presented as equal / one / non-dual / pure / perfect / divine -- in the non-dual sense of those terms -- 1) because their unique true nature & dynamic is like an inconceivable Union of being dependently co-arisen <==> and empty of inherent existence, 2) because they are like spontaneous natural manifestations of the unique pristine Ground / primordial-awareness / Suchness / Union of the Two Truths. So there is nothing to accept and nothing to reject.
So the Ground / ultimate and its manifestations / conventional / relative are presented as co-emergent, inseparable, in Union.)

All dharmas are appearing <==> but still empty; empty of inherent existence <==> but still conventionally dependently co-appearing & relatively functional. And that is not grasping at the conventional / relative, or at the ultimate / emptiness, or both together, or neither.
[TETRALEMMA:] All dharmas are ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐น๐ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ (๐๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฝ๐๐) <==> ๐ฏ๐๐ ๐๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ ๐ป๐ผ๐ป-๐ฒ๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ (๐๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด), not both existent & non-existent together, not neither existent nor non-existent, and there is no fifth. This is another way to express the inconceivable Union of the Two Truths [U2T].
[BEYOND:] Meaning their true nature is indescribable / ๐ถ๐ป๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ, ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ & ๐บ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐น๐ฒ, ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐น๐น ๐ฑ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐๐๐ฎ๐น ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐น๐ถ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐, beyond all limits, beyond all conditioning / karma (physical, conceptual, mental) x (individual, collective, cosmic).)

Another translation from the Great Chariot:
.
[Chapter 10 - Section H.1.a -
The teaching of the genuine emptiness of apparent objects,
(Union of the Two Truths: Union of the relative & ultimate.
Inseparability of appearances and emptiness.
Or inseparability of manifestations and the Ground / U2T.
All dharmas are equal, pure, perfect, divine, complete, free, unborn)]
.
KYE HO my friends, look at apparent objects.
They are all the ๐๐ป๐ฏ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ป. They are empty and ๐ฒ๐พ๐๐ฎ๐น.
Even though various images rise within a MIRROR,
The surface of that mirror is really only one,
.
If we look at the mind that has projected this,
Mind is ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ from any affirming or denying.
Just as clouds in the SKY arise and disappear,
The non-dual miracles of space are ๐ฝ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐.
This is the spotless nature that is the primordial buddha.
This is uncreated self-existing dharmata [Ground].
.
There is neither object [manifestations] or primordial purity [Ground].
There is no receiving and there is no letting go,
No bias or partiality, no negation or affirmation.
What appears has no true existence;
What rises [T1] is emptiness [T2] [U2T].
All is equality, free from all reference points [๐ถ๐ป๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ].
.
Objects are uncertain, appearing in various ways.
In the great impartiality, mind has no reference points.
So the nature of mahasandhi should be known.
.
Within the world of dharmas of samsara and nirvana,
The dharmas of the past are equality without concept.
The dharmas of the future are unborn ๐ฒ๐พ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐.
The dharmas of the present are non-dwelling ๐ฒ๐พ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐.
The three times are timeless as ๐ฒ๐พ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐ with no ground.
All there is was always eternally ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ.
.
The phenomenal world that consists of samsara and nirvana
Is nothing but an image reflected in the mind [Ground / mirror].
The nature of that mind is the great space of dharmadhatu [Ground / U2T].
The nature of that space is changeless throughout the three times.
That changeless nature was nirvana from the start.
This fundamental enlightenment is ๐๐๐ข๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐ง๐.

This brings us to the tantric idea of primordial purity, or "alpha purity." Alpha in Greek means "first" and "pure". Alpha purity in Tibetan is ka dag; this means that the MIND-AS-SUCH [GROUND / U2T] has never (that is, originally) been polluted, and also that the eternally perfect [GENUINE-]EMPTINESS [GROUND / U2T] has never (that is, originally) been polluted. Both the phenomenal world and the subject related to the phenomenal world were ๐ถ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ ๐ฝ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ. Only our conceptual paraphernalia, as well as imprints and inclinations, prevent us from recognizing this fact.
.
As you can see, the concept of primordial ๐ฝ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ actually brings us to the idea of ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ผ๐บ. As long as the subject has never been touched by his own delusions, emotional instability and neurosis, the idea of limitation or imprisonment in the dungeon of samsara is completely inapplicable here. Imprisonment exists only at the level of the unenlightened state. In a fundamental sense, this idea is unacceptable, because the MIND-AS-SUCH [GROUND / U2T] has never been limited. OUR FUNDAMENTAL NATURE [GROUND / U2T] has never been imprisoned in samsara. She is eternally free.
.
As soon as the practitioner realizes that he or she ๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ป ๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐น๐ถ๐บ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ, the mundane experiences of conceptual paraphernalia, delusions and the like "self-liberate." It is a technical Tantric term that sounds like rang drol in Tibetan. When we become aware of rang drol, we no longer even need to cast aside our delusions, neuroses, or emotional instabilities. They self-liberate by themselves. Nothing needs to be done about them. As soon as we begin to see clearly in relation to our nature and the nature of the phenomenal world, all obscurations are self-liberated - they become rang drol.
.
Mahamudra adepts argued that consciousness is like an OCEAN. At its deepest, it has always been motionless, but on the surface it is violently agitated by gusts of wind.
Likewise, MIND-AS-SUCH [GROUND / U2T] has never been touched by the wind.
Although our daily conscious experiences sway in the wind of change, our basic nature is never affected by it.
.
Another image they use is the SKY and clouds. Clouds come and go, but they never affect the nature of the sky. The sky was always clear and clear.
Likewise, our defilements have never touched the MIND-AS-SUCH [GROUND / U2T] and eternally perfect [GENUINE-]EMPTINESS [GROUND / U2T].
There has never been any imperfection.
In fact, it can be argued that the MIND-AS-SUCH [GROUND / U2T] and the eternally perfect [GENUINE-]EMPTINESS [GROUND / U2T] have never been influenced by either perfection or imperfection.
This is why we speak of ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป. and this is also the terminology of the tantrikas.
It has never been influenced by anything external to it.

=====================================
๐ And, if the Ground is primordially equal / pure / perfect / divine, then all of its inseparable spontaneous natural manifestations, all appearances, are also primordially equal / pure / perfect / divine. Everything is the Buddha here & now.

Ocean & waves: movement at the surface, stability below. All pristine water.
