Playful Nature

Pema Dragpa November 21, 2019

“The teachings and activities of Buddha Shakyamuni demonstrate that the nature of reality is generally playful, in a way. It is flexible and changing. Nevertheless, dualistic conceptions do not recognize it as such. When we are overwhelmed by duality, we tend to grasp and hold on to changing phenomena in a regimented way that only results in more challenges for us. Otherwise, everything is playful, everything is a display, and everything is an emanation—nothing is truly changing or happening, since all is the movement of the nature. This is just the way things are.”
