THAT’S Right! Listen Up. Look Up.
Listen, Abushri
You miserable, daydreaming fool,
You remember how delusions
Confused You in the past?
Watch out for delusions in the present,
And don’t lead a hypocritical life.
Stop unnecessary speculations.
You’ve made hundreds of plans
Which never came off
And only led to disappointment.
Unfinished acts are like
The overlapping action of the waves.
Stay alone and stop
Making your own head spin.
Preaching without first-hand experience.
Patrul Rinpoche 1808-1887
Learn something about yourself from this old poem. DO you notice your fabrications? How about taking a look at your cravings? Use the poem to study yourself. Are you wanting something more, something new & shiny?
Study Yourself!
Don’t remain a miserable, daydreaming fool!
Focus on whether or not you are daydreaming?
