Standing Back From One’s Reactions = Wisdom!!!
If we can stand back from our (the mind’s) reactions, then we deserve a slice of divine pride 😉 We have just stepped out of karma’s programming; ours and everyone else’s. If anger arises and we just hold back and recognise, that is “Mirror-like Wisdom” – emptiness merely reflecting …Wow!
There is wisdom in every emotion. This wisdom is an expression of emptiness – clear, pure, uncontaminated, perfect. Our essential nature.
Wisdom is right under our nose.
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.
