If Transmigration Is A Reality
If transmigration is a reality,
then everything we say, do and think will have an effect on our future.
Whatever we say, do and think now writes that future plan.
If transmigration is no ta reality,
then everything we say, do and think will have an effect on our future.
Whatever we say, do and think nowwrites that future plan.
Either way, being mindful of whatever we say, do and think enriches our lives.
The opposite of being mindful is being oblivious to the future effects
of whatever we say, do or think now.
An enriched life is one that has the fruitful potential of enlightenment.
Being enlightened is the realisation of our true nature,
having no script to follow, only nowness.
Nowness tells us what to say, do and think – and then we drop it.
The future is the next moment … fresh!
Either way, be happy with whatever occurs, because it is showing us something.
We may not like what we are being shown,
and that, in itself, is showing us something.
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. 
No escaping then
And no need to wish to do
Just pay attention
There is no escaping past actions, but we can reduce their potency by, rather than exaggerating them, just accept that that was the past. In letting go, we lessen – or bring to an end – the continuation of previous actions into the future.
