Relying on solitude is easy; giving up things is hard to do.

Explaining many profound dharmas is easy; living them is hard.

Gyalwa Godrakpa (1170 CE-1249 CE), The great Tibetan meditation master Gyalwa Godrakpa practiced and taught a nonsectarian approach to realization. Godrakpa's songs are uniquely beautiful and accessible: sometimes stern and sharp, sometimes lyrical and filled with allusions to the natural world. These songs express what Godrakpa emphasized in his life - a no-nonsense approach to the practice of meditation.
