No, actually I did not say that, although I did post an interesting article on wrong samadhi and it's dangers for discussion. It was not from a Dzogchen POV, but from a dude from the Thai Forest tradition. > Actually, he's parrotting his Guru, > Chogyal Norbu Rinpoche, who disses "internalized" silent sitting > meditation; in favor of the Dzogzen "direct cognition" approach. The Actually, I've never heard ANY Tibetan or Buddhist lama "diss" internalized" silent sitting meditation, esp. in Dzogchen where it's typical for such a student to be a master of sitting meditation IME. If you have a quote regarding this "dissing", I'd love to hear it. It's certainly a comment which seems ignorant of how Dzogchen is actually practiced though, so I wonder if you're misinterpeting something you might have read. In any event, you may want to re-read the little article on wrong samadhi, as it really didn't have anything to do with Dzogchen, but instead it was more from the Sutra style sitting school of meditation (shamatha and vipassana styles). <big snip of non sequitur material> PS: If you get more than one copy, my apologies in advance. Yahoo!'s burping on some messages. :-)
