We are fortunate to receive teachings by Acharya Lama Tenpa Gyaltsen on this crucial text by Maitreya, Distinguishing Phenomena and Pure Being.
Maitreya’s work speaks about the two sides of the same coin—mind in its confused state of daydreaming its own world versus waking up to its true nature. Like many other Yogacara scriptures, this text too describes the phenomenal world as being nothing but the product of our own essentially confused imagination and thus lacking any real existence outside of the imagining mind.
