Why Is Buddhism So Complicated?

Why is Buddhism so complicated?

The word ‘dukkha’ means unsatisfactory. Over thousands of year of adaptions and additions, teachings have themselves become increasingly complex – which is, in itself, unsatisfactory. It’s become mind-boggling as opposed to mind-refreshing. We’ve acquired a factory setting which is the opposite to what we are; learned beings, not wise beings.

Homo docens (‘Teaching/learned man’)
Homo sapiens (‘Wise man’)

We merely have to be aware of being aware,
dropping all identification with being aware.
The realisation that we are this is pure awareness, pure consciousness.

Wisdom is spontaneous knowledge, which is Dharma arising from within.
It is not something acquired.
It is compassionate activity.
