Attachments 2 go

June 9, 2008

Like a thirst

quenched;

Like a tired man

laying his head to rest;

Like carrying a bag of hot charcoal

and finally putting it down;

So too our minds will be

when we are free

of our desires, worries and attachments.

But how to let go?

By seeing the disadvantages of our attachments, and the advantages of non-attachment.

By understanding the true nature of all things.

By being at peace with the memories of the past and uncertainties of the future.

By being content with the present moment, without expecting anything more.

  2. Like a hot metal
    that has been super tempered,
    The metal itself may crack on the surface…
    What’s that mean metaphorically?
