This world is full of distracting, mistaken and vague information. There is also an underlying truth. Sorting out which is which can be a nightmare, full of foggy-good-feeling-dead-ends!
I know about those foggy-good-feeling-dead-ends…been there, done that! My only advice is to use Occam’s Razor – reducing everything to its simplest aspect, when all things are equal. That is where the Dharma works best – recognising awareness, and then recognising pure awareness (pure awareness meaning totally open with no interference). This is the natural state of a clear mind – totally normal and ordinary – allowing essence to just…be.
Writing about this could well be criticised, but there is a bigger picture involved…the secret corporate world we live in, which can no longer be ignored by Buddhism. Many of my dharma friends will only want to do formal practices, when the real dharma is in our moment-to-moment living in this corrupt, samsaric world.
The unity of the two truths is living the real dharma.
When standing alone, and not conforming, magic may happen.
