UNDERSTANDING AND NOT UNDERSTANDING
Understanding And Not Understanding Understanding isn’t accepting and repeating a set of words and beliefs that saturate the mind. Understanding comes from raw practice, and direct insight into the nature of mind; without this, we’re guessing. Hearsay is gossip – … Continue reading
CLARITY IS ALWAYS PRESENT
Clarity Is Always Present All sentient beings are the clarity of pure consciousness. It is ever-present, and it doesn’t go away. Without this, there would be no knowing. In fact, it’s so commonplace and simple that we ignore it. Clarity … Continue reading
CONNECTING WITH OTHERS
Connecting With Others Connecting with like-minded people is rare. Why? Too much fear. Through fear of change, fear of not knowing it all, we’ve gone a little skew-whiff. We cannot blame people for not knowing what they are–or even wanting … Continue reading
THE POINTING OUT INSTRUCTION INTO THE NATURE OF MIND
The Pointing Out Instruction Into the Nature of Mind We cannot hear this enough. When our mind isn’t thinking of anything, we fall into silent vacancy. This is the state of not knowing, which is also called ‘undecided’ or ‘common … Continue reading
CLARITY
Clarity Clarity, in the dictionary, means divine splendour.This is an amazing statement. That tells us all we need to know; clarity is pure consciousness. We are clarity; everything else is the illusion of confusion. Clarity sees the illusion for what … Continue reading

LIVING IN THE MIND
Living In the Mind When we live just in our mind, we live on memories, which are a simulation of reality. Thoughts are imagination, and have no direct reality; they merely colour everything that we see. This is the source … Continue reading
DISCOVERING OUR NATURAL STATE
Discovering Our Natural State Our natural state is divine splendour. Pure consciousness is clarity. (It’s a welcome surprise to read in the dictionary that clarity means divine splendour 🙂 ) If we spend our life looking for the truth, we’ve lost … Continue reading

NO PRACTISE, NO SUBTLE EXPERIENCES
No Practise, No Subtle Experiences No practise, no subtle experiences. Know practise, know subtle experiences. If we don’t practise, we cannot enable refined subtle experiences of genuine inner peace, compassion, inspiration, contentment, happiness, confidence and power, in order to endure … Continue reading
WHEN DEVOTION TURNS INTO WORSHIP
When Devotion Turns Into Worship When devotion turns into worship and worship turns into servitude and servitude turns into dependency and dependency turns into loss of free will, we have lost the plot, the essence of pure consciousness. As long … Continue reading

WE ARE DIVINE SPLENDOUR – SO WHAT?!
We Are Divine Splendour – So What?! Divine splendour is pure consciousness. “So what? My life isn’t suddenly better.” To dismiss this absolute truth means that it hasn’t been experienced, and we expect a fantasy to happen instead. Such a … Continue reading
PURE PERCEPTION IS ALWAYS RIGHT
Pure Perception Is Always Right Our problem is how we/I/ego interpret whatever is perceived through the senses, which personalises our judgements, clouding the first moment of perception. But this first moment of perception is a moment of pure clarity – … Continue reading
IS THE UNIVERSE A GOOD PLACE?
Is The Universe A Good Place? Our answer to this question will depend on how we see life. Is the universe is one of benevolence, malevolence or confusion? It’s all in the mind 🙂 Once we stop thinking that we … 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.
