THE PRIMORDIAL PURITY OF ALL KARMA
.
Comments: Karma : Can you believe that even 'karma' -- good, bad or neutral --
is primordially equal, pure, perfect, divine, complete, free, enlightened ...
With nothing to accept / produce, nothing to reject / not-produce , nothing to change / improve / purify in absolute terms.
That it is just Reality as it is.
Simply being aware of this is nirvana.
Seeing it with wisdom is seeing the Buddha everywhere.
The problem is not 'karma', it is clinging to it.

No Karma — Emptiness And The Two Truths
by Traleg Kyabgon Rinpoche
See: The inconceivable true nature & dynamic of Karma [U2T] - 239
Note: Once one has realised the true nature & dynamic of the karmic cycle, of Reality as it is, one does not produce anymore unwholesome actions that harm oneself/others. It is automatic since there is no more division between self and others.
From: H.E. Garchen Rinpoche’s Commentary on The Aspiration Prayer of Kuntuzangpo
.
So there is a single basis and there are two paths and two fruitions. The path of accomplishing other’s benefits that leads to the fruition of happiness and the path of self-cherishing that leads to the fruition of suffering. Two paths here do not refer to the physical paths that we walk on, rather they refer to 𝙙𝙞𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙙𝙚𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙣 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙠𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙖 (karma and its fruition). ...

I was really amazed by the difference between knowing and not knowing the working of karma (karma and its fruition) and thus how the mind views things. This is what determines our happiness and suffering. ...

They all can attain the state of Enlightenment if they understand the karma that they created in the past. If you do not understand the workings of the karma and you are not aware, then you are transforming happiness into suffering. You are transforming friends into enemies. Our fortune and riches may become the cause of miseries. We can only find suffering. This is one path and the other path is to understand karma, change the way of thinking and find happiness within suffering. Kuntuzangpo is your own mind and in order to realize that mind, we need awareness that means we need to 𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙠𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙖. May they all attain Enlightenment means may they all be free from suffering, may they resolve their own suffering by understanding the workings of the karma. ...

Another word for karma: the evolution of our body, speech and mind (individual, collective, cosmic).
.
Our inseparable impure body, speech and mind are completed / purified / transmuted into the inseparable pure body, speech and mind of the Buddha (the inseparable three pure kayas) simply by directly perceiving / realising / experiencing their true nature & dynamic as it is here & now. Not need to accept this while rejecting that, or changing anything in absolute terms.
.
Note: The three kayas are also related to the three inseparable characteristics of the Ground: essence [T2], nature [T1], and compassionate energy [U2T].

"Inherently we are all buddhas.
We are completely perfect
[even with our actual karma, our actual body, speech and mind].
.
We just have to learn how to recognize our true, absolutely immaculate, wise, and completely compassionate nature.
.
We are not looking to take something from outside ourselves.
We are opening up to what we already have - we are opening up to the fullness within us.
.
We are trying simply to awaken our original nature." 💗
