Right Speech
Right speech is enlightened speech,
where opposing forces or influences are balanced.
Wrong speech creates division.
When we tame our body, speech and mind, we are on the right path to enlightenment.
Conversely, if we do not tame our body, speech and mind, we become demanding.
We cannot demand that others have right speech and right actions: that would be unreasonable.
As we evolve out of the primeval swamp of illusions,
we leave the untamed swamp dwellers to evolve in their own good time.
Our untamed reactions are karmic moments of instruction and evolution when no I is involved. Right mind is pure consciousness. How else will this corrupted world change?
BUDDHA IN THE MUD. Practical everyday insight into Dzogchen Buddhism. It's not about feeling good about yourself; it's about feeling good about your self. Your self is your karma and teacher.
