Message from the Lord

I have been feeling kind of funny as this thought keep circulating in my mind and prompted me to write about this wisdom .

Bodhi tree is not a tree
Mirror images  are not real
Basically, we are nothing
So, how can we attract dust and sadness.

This wisdom came from a Buddhist wisdom .  It means Bodhi tree is not a tree because Bodhi tree does not grow from a seed originally. So not a natural tree.  Mirror images are not real depicts illusions or fakeness . What we see is not real but only images around us. Basically, we are nothing means impermanence.  We are only in transit and ashes to ashes , dust to dust and our whole body is nothing but water and dust. After we died, we are gone and does not exist.   In the case , why are we suffering sadness ?  If nothing , we cannot hold anything for feel anything. 

So, the whole problem is our mind.  If we control our mind, we control ourselves and we will be happy always. Be aware of this monkey mind , train it and make it work for us.

Namaste.
