| | Mahamudra |
 | | Mahamudra meditation itself is meditation on Sunyata and because you are meditating on Emptiness of the mind, you are observing your mind and watching the thought process and being in the present moment so you gradually see the mind itself has no beginning no end and has no inherent existence. |  | | It says that when you accomplish the realizations of void-ness or Mahamudra when you meditate on Mahamudra you have to experience the void-ness of self and the meditator As well as the void-ness of the object of meditation and you have to experience the void-ness of the action of the meditation, all three simultaneously. |  | | Generally while we are meditating on Mahamudra or Samatha Vipassana we need to meditate with a single pointed-ness mind and that meditation on single pointed-ness mind is called Space like meditation, you are dwelling in the meditative state with a single mind, not dwelling in the past and not in the future. |

| | The Berzin Archives - The Gelug-Kagyu Tradition of Mahamudra - Part Four - Chapter 1 |
 | | Thus several masters assert basis mahamudra to be the subtlest level of mind and energy-wind that are the basis for all appearance-making and appearances of samsara or nirvana. |  | | In the sutra system, basis mahamudra is, as the first line of the root text indicates, "the all-pervasive nature of everything, the great seal of reality." This refers to the devoid nature of all things of samsara or nirvana -- the total absence of their existing in any fantasized, impossible manner. |  | | The mahamudra teachings derive from India, ultimately from Shakyamuni Buddha himself, and contain both sutra and tantra presentations. |

 | | The third Karmapa, Rangjung Dorje), wrote a prayer of aspiration for the realization of Mahamudra in which he said, "It is not existent because even the Buddha could not see it, but it is not nonexistent because it is the basis or origin of all samsara. |  | | It is not beneficial to speak of Mahamudra lightly; we must not ignore any of these three aspects of the Mahamudra approach. |  | | At that point there is no longer any distinction between meditating and not meditating because one is always meditating. |
