LIFE IS COMMUNICATION
Life Is Communication Communication with others and our environment is what life is about. We share information about what we have in common. This depends on what we see as having value in life. Most people seem to prefer casual conversations … Continue reading
MEANINGFUL COMMUNICATION IS RARE
Meaningful Communication Is Rare If we cannot communicate meaningfully, then evil has greater power. Evil is the opinions of ego, rather than empirical understanding of reality. Meaningful discussion is rare these days. Ever been to a pantomime? We live in … Continue reading

RELIGION V SPIRITUALITY
Religion V Spirituality Religion is the form, while spirituality is the means. Although religions attempt to be spiritual, they cannot stop being hierarchical organisations where people have titles, with different ranks or positions depending on how important they are to … Continue reading

MIND TRAINING = MIND CONTROL
Mind Training = Mind Control We train the mind through meditation so as not to be distracted at every moment, and be able to control our self and our behaviour. If we cannot do this, our mind is being controlled … Continue reading
FEELING GUILTY
Feeling Guilty Friction can cause heat or light. If there is no feeling of understanding or empathy, we’re in the wrong group. Communication is difficult, if not impossible. 🙂 This situation is excellent, and we have no reason to feel … Continue reading

FREE SPEECH

CONSUMERS OF CONFUSION
Consumers Of Confusion Why are we the way we are? We are all influenced from birth by the propaganda mill of confused information about any meaning to life. We’re consumers of confusion. It’s just brain-washing = nurture, plus a nature … Continue reading
CONFUSING CONSCIOUSNESS
Confusing Consciousness Confusing consciousness confuses us. Do we have consciousness, or are we consciousness? Two paths that lead in opposite directions. Because of this, we only communicate on a relative level. True communication is rare. Most humans believe that consciousness … Continue reading
TALKING TO OTHERS CAN BE CHALLENGING…
Talking To Others Can Be Challenging… …stressful, difficult, taxing, demanding, tough, hard, heavy, pressured, testing, frustrating, fraught, traumatic, arduous, gruelling, tiring, fatiguing, exhausting, hellish… “What world are they living in?!” And therein lies the answer to “What world are they living in?” It’s their personal world, of course, and because of that, there aren’t … Continue reading
SELF-KNOWING AWARENESS
Self-Knowing Awareness We are automatically (without conscious thought or attention) spontaneous awareness/ consciousness. Nothing creates this: it works by itself without human control. A human is merely consciousness that became confused and attached itself to certain ideas which, driven by karma, … Continue reading
DHARMA CHAT
Dharma Chat I love discussing the Dharma but, on reflection, the Dharma is about what is going on in our own mind right now. We can go to teachings and listen to enlighten our path. We can ask questions of … Continue reading
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.
