Relative And Ultimate Satisfaction
Relative satisfaction is either in the completion of something,
or in others’ recognition of having completed something
– we’ve tried to the best of our ability.
Ultimate satisfaction is;
“Is that all!?”
“What have I been doing?”
“That is it!”
“Wow.”
It is the ‘I’, the mind, that wants satisfaction.
Pure consciousness is content just to be.

BUDDHA IN THE MUD is a blog - a living book based on the Dzogchen teachings. Our teacher is life, and life is karma. In this way, Dzogchen is practical - no bells and whistles required. 
Having said that, personally, I find satisfaction in making a decision; I may not have done anything yet, but I have come to a resolution. As to whether a decision is skilful or not, we have to wait and see … but everything is a stepping stone.
