PADMASAMBHAVA’S FOUR TEACHINGS TO THE DAKINI
The single vehicle is the understanding that all teachings are personal advice on how to soften rigid mind-habits, letting go of pointless aims, and then settling into a gentle presence that is both calm and kind.

This aware steadiness is often called shamatha, being calm, and it is the basis for all higher or deeper states of authentic insight.
