We can only share the experience of love if we relinquish our definitions of who we are and what we propose to become.
Love is there when the artificial divisions between us dissolve into the iridescent spectrum of our beginningless nature. The love which radiates from our primordial state cannot help but sparkle through: no matter how insecure, frightened, isolated, anxious, or bewildered we become.
To fall in love, and to realise one’s beginningless nondual nature, have tantalising similarities. They reflect each other. The Khandro Pawo Nyi-da Mélong Gyüd is a teaching that elucidates the nature of this reflection in a manner which has the capacity to change the world.

Tralam-mé in ordinary terms pertains to anything that happens in the sky –
weather conditions, precipitation, rainbows, the Aurora Borealis, asteroids,
meteor showers, seeing the stars in the sky, the moon in the sky, visions in
the sky, whatever happens in the sky.
In terms of Dzogchen long-dé tralam-mé is used in the context of vajra
romance – and thus we translate the term as poetic turbulence. Poetic
turbulence is the romantic energetic which is sparked by the capacity for
realisation in two individuals.
Tralam-mé does not exist simply as an interface between male-female
romantic couples; it exists between everyone and everything everywhere.
Tralam-mé affects how people relate with each other. We call it poetic
turbulence as an emptiness and form coinage. Tralam-mé
is the manner in which people accidentally rhyme with each other – the
manner in which they fall in love.
Tralam-mé allows you to experience the non-dual sparkling through
in respect of your partner.
