      Did Dudjom Lingpa tell you that?

      Yes, in a lucid dream.

      That was a clever response, but it's one I've heard a thousand times over from Rabbis who believe the world to be 6,000 years old. And if Shakyamuni himself told me in a lucid dream that Dudjom Lingpa was full of shit, what then?

      Did he? Did Shakyamuni himself tell you in a lucid dream Dudjom Lingpa was full of shit? No. Then, I suggest you wait TILL IT HAPPENS MOTHERFUCKER.

      Fine. He told me in a non-lucid dream. Guess I'll have to get back to you after I summon him in a lucid dream and my subconscious has him tell me what I want to hear.

      You know nobody told you shit. You're guessing. You haven't woken up. Do the work, fucking wake up, & then teach, you idiot.

      I also never proclaimed to "teach" anything.

      When you get on Twitter & tell people that they probably cannot stop their thinking, nor would that be desirable, you're trying to teach them something, are you not?

      You're right. Let me rephrase that. I never proclaimed to teach Buddhism.

      You're teaching something, and it's not right. Wake up first. Not in the Buddhist sense, just fucking wake up first.

      Seems to me that your definition of waking up is coming to agreement with your own views. This is part of what is wrong with institutionalized Buddhism. If I don't agree with you, or have different ways of communicating to a specific audience, then I'm just not awake enough.

          Maybe you're awake in a way that I'm not. Maybe I'm awake in a way that you're not. Maybe both. Maybe neither. I'm not interested in having a dick-measuring contest of enlightenment - that nonsense is a hobby for Buddhist politicians.

          Until we invent an enlightenment meter, no one owns the dharma. I trust the useful things the dharma has taught me; I'm not gonna wait until I shapeshift into a rainbow to share what I've learned from my own experience.

          Attain the thoughtless state in full awareness. That's an initial waking up. Attain the ability to remain in it with strength & stability for as long as needed. That's the refinement of waking up.

          Agreed. After "seeing" emptiness for the first time, though, it's not easy to return there on command, at least not for more than an instant at a time. I just don't see how one could function living without ANY conceptual mental processes 24/7. Many kinds of thoughts are useful.
