Mara Knows What We Know
Mara knows what we know,
but doesn’t experience it.
Mara: Demonic minds waiting in ambush.
Demonic minds know what we know – that all sentient beings are driven by attraction, aversion and indifference. They can even talk about refined qualities of the mind, but cannot experience emptiness as there is nothing to gain.
Pure consciousness is extremely subtle:
so is Mara.
Recognising Mara mind at work is the path to enlightenment.
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.
