'"Just one more" is the binding factor in the circle of suffering,' said the Sakyong Jamgon Mipham Rinpoche.
Yet this is the root of addiction and of obsession. It begets suffering.
Such a thing arises in the mind. Listen to what Sakyong Mipham writes about this:
'The mind is where we live. It is how we experience things. Through the practice of meditation, we see past the superficial waves of discursiveness and discover the noble qualities that are the true nature of mind.'
For the true nature of mind lies beneath its surface.
Without meditation we cannot discover it; with meditation, we know intimately its true nature.

Unconditional love tranquilizes the mind, and thus conquers all.
