How Much Mud Can We Take?
It seems we can hold on to quite a lot of sticky matter.
Everything we touch becomes contaminated.
The mud is ideas that hold our persona,
and is the reason why we keep returning to this cycle of existence.
We have to wash it all off – that’s if we recognise the muddy mess we are in. How many want to admit that? We wash off these ideas, these concepts that we stick to, by proper instruction in meditation. Meditation is the soap, but then we have to rinse off the soap of meditation, otherwise our meditation becomes a sticky caricature of mud again.
Why should we bother?
Until the mud bothers us, we will simply not bother.
It all depends on our level of understanding
Ignorance is bliss.
Realising ignorance is bliss.
