“You should know that rigpa, the primordial wisdom nature which is the nature of the mind, has nothing to do with personality or the conceptual mind. It is the essential nature of each and every human being, without exception, never changing. This nature cannot be changed by the different forms, personalities and characteristics that a person assumes as a wanderer in cyclic existence. It cannot be changed because it is unborn and unceasing. It is the nature as it always has been and always will be. To the degree that you are unfamiliar with this understanding, you are unlikely to have recognized the original nature.”

Gyatrul Rinpoche
