Simply Dzogchen
Everyday life is Dzogchen ‘practice’ itself.
Since a social “I” does not exist,
there is no need to behave in any special way
beyond that which you actually are.
There is no need to strive to reach some
“amazing advanced state.”
Really!
What is Dzogchen?
It is not a practice.
It is what you actually are
– pure awareness.
That’s amazing.
What is pure awareness?
It is beyond body and mind:
uncontaminated reality
experiencing past karma
and not creating more.
Is that all?
Amazingly, yes.
So it’s nothing special?
It’s ordinary.
Extraordinary.
BUDDHA IN THE MUD is a blog - a living book based on the Dzogchen teachings. Our teacher is life, and life is karma. We are all Buddhas in the mud of concepts. 
…It’s a sort of calm acceptance of what life presents to us. Of course we all wish that life could be better, but the mistaken idea of better has made things worse.
Trying to make conventional life better is what our collective karma has produced, and so will go on that way. The calm acceptance comes from an ultimate view point.
Still, calm acceptance is not without compassion, and that is the “work”.
