'Mind has the characteristics of space and, therefore, it is free from thoughts and concepts.' The Vairocanābhisambodhi

[Lama Surya Das @LamaSuryaDas]

A king’s robe or old blanket can keep u warm. A gold throne or bare ground can be a seat. A grand palace or a mud hut can be shelter. A jewelled plate or wooden pot can hold food. The external world does not destroy inner peace, attachment & aversion will. #ChamtrulRinpoche

The Chill That Isn’t There: What Cold Teaches Us About Self and Nirvana 🙏🙏

So this thought occurred today: Cold isn’t something in itself, Cold does not really exist - Cold is just the absence of Heat. We don’t add Cold to a room; we take away warmth. What feels like “Cold” is simply what’s left when Heat is gone.

Buddhism uses a similar lens to talk about the "Self" and Nirvana. The Buddha didn’t describe Nirvana as a “thing” to possess. It’s Not a place or a glowing reward. Nirvana is the natural state that remains when greed, hatred, and delusion - the mental "Heat" - have faded away.

And what about the "Self"? Just like Cold feels real but isn’t a thing by itself, what we call “Self” is just a collection of body, feelings, thoughts, and perceptions moving together.

When we investigate it closely, we can’t find a solid core - just patterns, like shadows cast by a flame.

So, Nirvana isn’t about adding anything. It’s about removing what keeps us burning. Like a cool breeze after a long, hot day, what remains is not a thing we gain, but what was always there - once the fire calms down. 🙏🙏🙏
