DOES CONSCIOUSNESS CARE?

This is the proverbial struggle of good … Continue reading

WALKING IN OTHERS’ DREAMS
Walking In Others’ Dreams We have enough problems living in our dreams, let alone living in others’ dreams 🙂 We believe others are the enemy and they believe we are; it’s all a manipulation of concepts/dreams. Some of us have … Continue reading
EMPOWERING YOURSELF?
Empowering Yourself? We have become so daft that we think ’empowering yourself’ is a normal expression. This is acquiring false confidence from a memory bank of mundane ideas in order to become a self-centred comic-book, parading around in the pretence … Continue reading

TIME TO KNOW WHAT TO VALUE
Time To Know What To Value World freedom is being restricted. It’s like a science fiction horror film. Only the body and mind can actually be restricted, however. The witness, the audience, pure consciousness, looks on without any restriction. That … Continue reading
BELIEF: THE SATANIC PLOT
Belief: The Satanic Plot Being told to believe turns us aside from truth. How is that satanic? The answer is that belief obscures knowing and promotes a false view. Satan: Hebrew śāṭān, literally ‘adversary’, from śāṭan ‘plot against’. Satan, also known as the Devil, is an entity in the Abrahamic … 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.
