“Fear of otherness lies at the root of prejudice. From the point of view of dualized derangement, nothing is as “other” or dissimilar as the non-dual state. From the perspective of non-duality, therefore, one is prejudiced against one’s own natural state. Vajrayana is based on the experience of identification with the “otherness of emptiness.” “Otherness,” therefore holds no fear for those who practice according to the Vajrayana principle of transformation.”
―Ngak'chang Rinpoche and Khandro Déchen
