We Have Been Programmed
We have been programmed for thousands of years.
Why?
To maintain a consent of belief and conflict, rather than knowing harmony.
Why?
There are those who think that they own it all, including us.
Why?
They see us as inferior, and want us to think that way.
Why?
The population means nothing to them;
we are merely fodder through our labour, consumption, taxation/fines and ignorance.
It’s all a deliberate illusion.
As long as we believe in the ‘stories’, we will sleep-walk and sleep-talk.
This world is a stage;
we learn our script which we constantly rehearse,
performing throughout our life.
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. 
“We” require a “They,” even as “we” declare “no duality”! WE are THEY! “We have met the enemy and they are us!”
Yes, appearances and recognition is simultaneous. if there is darkness there must be light. Heaven and hell are also inseparable.
The universe is built on opposites – attraction and repulsion. 🙂
