Dzogchen Rinpoche Ponlop

"All emotions—whether we view them as good or bad—have a single essence that’s beyond good or bad. No matter what they look like on the surface or how you judge them, emotions—at their core—are basically positive. Instead of seeing only opposition or contradiction, you see an unbiased wholeness. You recognize that all of your emotions spring from the same source: the spontaneous, ever-present creative energy of your own mind, your own heart."
