 Buddha described the mind as fundamentally luminous and pure, merely visited by afflictive moods, thoughts, and emotions. This famous passage affirms that the mind (heart, psyche) is not identical with afflictions, confusions, and neuroses. Rather, the nature of the mind is beautiful. Buddha compared the mind to lustrous gold freed of dross and impurities by skillful work. This teaching sheds fresh light on how and why we meditate; it is a central part of our inner work. Through reflection, meditation, and contemplation we come to recognize the mind’s beautiful potential and stop identifying with the afflictive stories, voices, and habits. Meditation cultivates skillful habits of heart and mind that elevate our lives.
