The Five Wisdoms Part 2
GESHE TENZIN WANGYAL RINPOCHE
Wisdom has a specific meaning in Dzögchen:
The recognition of the natural state, one's own true nature; it does not refer to something we acquire little by little, or with age, or with experience; rather, it describes the recognition of complete perfection at this moment, at any given moment.
When we realize the unlimited openness and pure awareness of our natural mind, this recognition shows itself as five distinct qualities of wisdom.
The Five Wisdoms are:
* Wisdom of Emptiness: Seeing all phenomena including oneself as lacking inherent existence. We are open without limits.
* Wisdom that is like a Mirror: Recognize all appearances as exhibiting the clear and unobscured nature of the natural mind. We are rich with unlimited potential.
* Wisdom of Equanimity: Free from the prejudice of accepting or rejecting. We embrace all experience with openness, awakened awareness and warmth.
* Discerning Wisdom: By realizing the uniqueness of each appearance, we mature virtuous qualities that arise spontaneously.
* All-Achieving Wisdom: Complete in this moment, we express positive qualities creatively, spontaneously and effortlessly for the benefit of all.
