Not so fast there. I'm impressed. I suspect only a few paid much attention to Dudjom Lingpa except those close to him and the rare ones knowledgeable of their potential significance in their own lives. Tweet us a few you have received we pray.https://twitter.com/anyane/status/995058473510494208 …

We don't have to transform appearances of samsara into appearances of nirvana or change the contents of our environment to be happy; we just have to transform the quality of the perceiving mind from confusion to clear awareness. That's all.

There is a profoundly meaningful life domain in the realm we access in dream, the intermediate state, which your experience both validates and informs us on how to better optimize its experience. Did any teachers identify themselves in any way? Was it oral or direct to your mind?

Sometimes i am studying something and I'll dream about it. For example, i studied taichi and started having dreams of masters transmitting teachings. I told my instructor, he said that was how the masters taught, mind to mind, so it was a sign of integration lol but who knows

Even without making/denying any claims to mystical transmission etc, there is a very rich crossover between what one might call symbol and reality. I’ve been thinking about this a bit, especially with regards to the symbolic aspects of ‘non-ritual’ Vajrayana practice and dreams.
