We Get Old Because We Stop Playing
When we ‘grow up’, we take ourselves seriously.
We lose the present moment, and obsess about the past.
When we stop being playful, we stop learning and experimenting,
no longer finding joy in the small things.
Keeping the inner child active is being alert,
staying sharp and happy.
The inner child is pure consciousness.
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.
