She is a mountain
Because lesser beings cannot fathom her profundity,
She is a forest.
Because her cavern is filled with nectar,
She is a cave.
Because her union of wisdom and skill is deep,
She is a riverbank.
Because she [knows] the natural state beyond birth and death,
She is primordial.
Because she is the object of great bliss,
Her activity is natural.
Because she burns the views of early disciples and solitary
achievers in the fire of great passion,
She is a cremation ground.
~ Tsong Khapa as quoted by Mark Epstein, M.D. in Open to Desire
