THE DILEMMA OF TALKING DHARMA
The Dilemma Of Talking Dharma The dilemma of giving information about the experience of reality beyond ‘normal’ human understanding is whether it’s getting to those who will appreciate it and practise, or whether it will be abused for fame and … Continue reading
FAKE DHARMA – REAL DHARMA
Fake Dharma – Real Dharma Fake is words; realisation is real.Too much talk maintains the illusion,obscuring pure vision. The best part of a teaching or a retreat is leaving. 🙂 We come away with whatever was absorbed, soaked up beyond … Continue reading
IT MATTERS
It Matters It matters what we think, what we say and what we do. If we merely go through a routine and function on that habitual level, we are in a dream state. We need to break the pattern – … Continue reading
MISUNDERSTANDING ALL WE SEE
Misunderstanding All We See We look and interpret, speculate and judge, and this affects the way we think and behave. It doesn’t matter in what part of the infinite universe a sentient being dwells, it survives by its likes and … Continue reading
THE ILLUMINATI’S SECRET
The Illuminati’s Secret We conform to others’ standards too easily, without question. Why? Because we have been processed that way for generations. The secret is; we are already members of the ‘Illuminati’ 🙂 People talk about organisations like the Illuminati … Continue reading
SUBTLE REALISATION
Subtle Realisation Correct meditation – realisation that comes from dropping the meditation – allows us to become more sensitive to the world, and more sensitive to the machinations and plotting of the mind. We become spiritual engineers, able to diagnose … Continue reading
SPIRITUALITY CAN BE A PRISON
Spirituality Can Be A Prison Doubt imprisons us. Once we understand the principle of any activity, we are free to go away and develop it. When we get a glimpse that we are pure consciousness, meditation verifies it. If people … Continue reading
HOW NOT TO MEDITATE
How Not To Meditate Although meditation is yoga or union, it isn’t an exercise class where we do something special on a cushion 🙂 Meditation is barely resting in awareness. It is the unity or oneness of consciousness in an … Continue reading
THERE IS NO GURU-STUDENT RELATIONSHIP
There Is No Guru-Student Relationship There is no guru-student relationship:it’s all in our head. Gurus acquire a lot of students because people are desperate to find something else in life to attach to. If we are too dependent on a … Continue reading
A GENUINE PRACTITIONER IS PRACTICAL
A Genuine Practitioner Is Practical We all know that the world is ‘off’ in some way. When we only choose one or two aspects of this ‘off-ness’ and identify with them – making us ‘off’ as well – we do … Continue reading

IF WE DO NOT MEDITATE …
If We Do Not Meditate … If we do not meditate, we will not know how to drop it. In dropping the meditation, we realise the final answer. No one became enlightened through meditation. They became enlightened by dropping the … Continue reading
STOP MEDITATING
Stop Meditating Once you have resolved that the nature of mind is empty essence, then stop meditating. Breaking the meditation is essential for meditation. We still sit with a straight, relaxed back, relaxed jaw, relaxed eyes – open but not … 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.
