„II. 54: When consciousness interiorizes by uncoupling from external objects, the senses do likewise; this is called withdrawal of the senses.“
„I. 4: Otherwise, awareness takes itself to be the patterns of consciousness.“
„II. 20: Pure awareness is just seeing, itself; although pure, it usually appears to operate through the perceiving mind.“
“IV. 23: Then, consciousness can be colored by both pure awareness and the phenomenal world, thereby fulfilling all its purposes.
“IV. 34: Freedom is at hand when the fundamental qualities of nature, each of their transformations witnessed at the moment of its inception, are recognized as irrelevant to pure awareness; it stands alone, grounded in its very nature, the power of pure seeing. That is all.”
