The Rat Race
The trouble with the rat race (the competition for intellect, wealth or power) is that even if we win, we’re still a rat. 😀
Spiritual progress is knowing when we have had enough of this obsessive exhausting, repetitive lifestyle that leaves no time for contemplation, true inner peace or a friendly chat about what is important.
If we live in a rat race of competitiveness we can’t be authentic, and we lose touch with the things that are most important – life outside the rat race. 🙂
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.
