[10:20 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: watching zurmang rinpoche reading transmission for the karmapa  text in his book. i think his view is clear.. all is mind, mind is empty and emptiness is spontaneous presence

he also used something like chariot analogy to explain emptiness of self and phenomena
[10:21 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: Wow that is good
[10:22 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: U mean the appearance is devine?
[10:23 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: actually he didnt explain this part a lot but only mentioned it in brief on what is the key point when meditating on mind -  all is mind, mind is empty and emptiness is spontaneous presence ... but its also in his book
[10:23 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: under here
[10:24 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: Which book?
[10:25 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: this one https://www.awakeningtoreality.com/2021/08/transmission-of-concise-commentary-on.html
[10:25 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: https://www.amazon.com/Mahamudra-Twelfth-Zurmang-Gharwang-Rinpoche-ebook/dp/B08VJMXV84
[10:26 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: There r two emptiness as I told u, one is the release from all elaborations and the other is experiential emptiness or presentation presence.
[10:26 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: oic..
[10:27 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: so mahamudra is more experiential emptiness?
[10:28 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: Yes imo.  However the freedom of all elaborations as presentation (not representation) as the view is crucial.
[10:29 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: That makes it non-dual, no-self.
[10:36 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: freedom of all elaborations as presentation is the experiential emptiness?
[10:37 PM, 8/7/2021] Soh Wei Yu: thats like anatta right
[10:42 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: It is the full measure of anatta.
[10:42 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: Imo
[10:43 PM, 8/7/2021] John Tan: Means u extend what u have understood in no-self to all phenomena and events.
