Samsara presents opportunities for realisation – simply by virtue of samsara's failure to function. Samsara is a self-defeating self-frustrated cycle, which is unsuccessful even within its own terms. Because duality cannot function successfully within its own parameters – it cannot help but provide opportunities for realising nonduality. As soon as we seriously examine samsara – we begin to find it somewhat implausible; and that, is an intriguing discovery. The Nyi-da Mélong (a Dzogchen tantra from the Aro gTér) takes this intriguing discovery as one of an array of interwoven themes. The Nyi-da Mélong explores the texture of romance from the perspective of the manner in which desire itself promotes the spiritual qualities of wisdom and compassion.
