Enlightened Essence
That’s what we are. That’s what we have always been, and that’s what we will always be. That is the nature of mind. This enlightened essence is pure, empty and uncontaminated. It cannot be found – only realised, and let be.
So what’s the problem?
We keep ignoring it!
Hearing the word ’emptiness’
is looking from the outside in.
Realising emptiness
is knowing emptiness inside out.
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. 
To be empty ,yet fulfilled at same time, is a very good state of mind to be in .
