Casa Garuda

Casa Garuda Il casale risale alla fine del 1700 ed è stato recentemente ristrutturato. It is part of the 600 hectare estate, the Tenuta Le Coste nature reserve.

Casa garuda si trova nel centro Italia, proprio sul confine tra toscana ed Umbria, all'interno della Antica Tenuta Le Coste, 600 ettari di verde, boschi, campi coltivati, uliveti. La posizione unica del casale offre un panorama che ricorda antichi dipinti del Perugino natio della vicina Città della Pieve. Casa Garuda is located in the heart of Italy, half way between Rome and Florence, on the Umbria/Tuscany border. Dating to the early 1800's, this traditional Umbria farmhouse was part of the estate's sharecropping enterprise, and was originally restored in the 1990's and then again in 2003. The panorama afforded by its hilltop location reveals the ancient Etruscan village of Chiusi, the famous hotsprings village of Chianciano terme, Montepulciano surrounded by its vineyards, Cortona far to the north, and then in Umbria, the lake-side village of Castiglione del Lago, and Città della Pieve, a vibrant walled city and home to Perugino, teacher of Rafael. The estate itself consists of rolling fields of grain or sunflowers, forests and innumerable olive groves. There is a thriving year-round community here and plenty of wildlife: pheasants, wild boar, deer, and more ...

“When a thought arises, we must simply note that it has occurred, while at the same time remembering that it has come from nowhere, dwells nowhere, and goes nowhere, leaving no trace of its passage, just as a bird, in its course across the sky, leaves no mark of its flight. In this way, when thoughts arise, we can liberate them into the absolute expanse. When thoughts do not arise, we should rest in the open simplicity of the natural state.”

“Although all sort of images appear in a mirror, they do not exist in any solid way. But we have to understand that the same is also true for all the infinite manifestations of samsara and nirvana. The emptiness and the manifestation are indivisible: the emptiness cannot be separated from the manifestation. When we speak of emptiness and appearance, this does not mean that there are two things in the same way that we talk about the two horns of an animal. It means that there is no emptiness besides the manifestation and there is no manifestation besides the emptiness. Once we are free from clinging to this sort of duality, our concepts of existence and nonexistence will naturally fall apart. It is important to have a clear understanding – free of doubts – of this unimpeded manifestation.”

The mistaken dualistic mind ~ Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche
https://justdharma.org/the-mistaken-dualistic-mind-namkhai-norbu-rinpoche/

All the philosophical theories that exist have been created by the mistaken dualistic minds of human beings. In the realm of philosophy, that which today is considered true, may tomorrow be proved to be false. No one can guarantee a philosophy's validity. Because of this, any intellectual way of seeing whatever is always partial and relative. The fact is that there is no truth to seek or to confirm logically; rather what one needs to do is to discover just how much the mind continually limits itself in a condition of dualism.

Dualism is the real root of our suffering and of all our conflicts. All our concepts and beliefs, no matter how profound they may seem, are like nets which trap us in dualism. When we discover our limits we have to try to overcome them, untying ourselves from whatever type of religious, political or social conviction may condition us. We have to abandon such concepts as 'enlightenment', 'the nature of the mind', and so on, until we are no longer satisfied by a merely intellectual knowledge, and until we no longer neglect to integrate our knowledge with our actual existence.

“In any visualization practice we should think that everything has been perfect from the very beginning, that what we visualize is not an intellectual product but primordially true. This means that we perceive the natural perfection of the environment as a buddha-field and the beings therein as celestial beings, dakas, and dakinis. With intense devotion, we perceive our teacher as inseparable from Guru Padmasambhava. If we maintain constant devotion, it is certain that Guru Rinpoche will always be near us, like our shadow. In order to support and vivify such devotion, we recite the verses of this guru yoga.”
