He Who Was Not

You are correct that this is a main tenet of Dzogchen, which is also connected to the Bon tradition of Tibet. Dzogchen, really, is the core of Buddhism itself, and does not really belong to any one tradition, but is an idea which is seen in many.

It seems redundant, to me, to "add to" infinity. Really, I am just becoming aware of the Infinity that already exists, and in each moment my "addition" is really just a motion, just an interaction, and part of the greater motions of everything.

I guess to me, the idea that there is any particular "goal" except awareness makes no sense to me. The goal is not understanding, is not knowing, and is not even transformation. Really, there is no goal except that which consciousness chooses to perceive. All of these things only add to awareness of awareness, and what I see is the potential of awareness within all individual Ones as reflections of the capacity for awareness of the Infinite One. That is, I am really just one "charge" from One to infinity and back again. My "development" is really just a matter of my degree of awareness of the total Creator, and this body is an expression of the "phase" of that movement.

To me, the Universe is based in Mind, and that "realities" are really just thought systems and organizations of thoughts. In this I include the thoughtform that is Matter and all physical objects. Our individual experiences are really just the perception of a changing thought system, which moves us through a kaleidescope of experience.

The entire system of reality in which we exist is a thought system which we have configured our mind to.

Of course, all thought systems are self-existent in the Mind of the One, and it is the individual reflections of the One which explore the many realms which thought organize themselves in to.
