Making The Mind Like A Lotus.

#WednesdayWisdom

In its natural state the mind is calm and peaceful but things we encounter continually stir it up and we become agitated and confused. Things we like and dislike, craving and aversion it all leads us into suffering.

If the mind is empty, it is relaxed therefore we are relaxed. We are not making something out of anything, the mind is not creating and proliferating things for us to worry about.

This is why we meditate, to give the mind a break from the normal routine. It is also why we continually watch our reactions to things we experience through the senses and mental impressions.

Whether we experience good or bad we train the mind to be like a lotus, undisturbed, graceful and at ease.

“Our bad thoughts, words, and deeds are the means by which we destroy ourselves. Our good thoughts, words, and deeds are the means by which we help and foster ourselves.” — Luangta Maha Boowa, Life of Inner Quality

May this teaching lead you to realisation; may it help you know the truth. May we all be freed from the suffering of birth and death.
