You said you want to save life,
How can you when you do not understand,
That life is just filled of suffering,
Suffering and life is the basic of living.
You said you want to relieve suffering,
How can you when you do not understand,
Suffering is the nature of being,
Is by letting go we see suffering ceases.
You then now want to let go,
How can you when you do not understand,
Letting go is by letting go of that desire to let go itself,
Is by freeing the mind completely we free ourselves.
You have now free yourself,
Then you come to the understanding,
It takes as much as nothing to reach an empty mind,
As much as it takes almost everything to attain that,
As if in an emptiness it is actually full of space, and in a space it is actually full of emptiness.
This is the truth of liberation- Nirvana.
You have now empty the mind,
Then you come to the understanding,
An empty mind cannot suffer, and suffering do not arise in an empty mind,
Because an empty mind is a mind of letting go- letting go of the suffering.
You have now free yourself from suffering,
Then you come to the understanding,
You have not destroy suffering neither you have deny them,
It is because you have understood suffering that you stay above them,
And so you understood life.
A humble dedication to whomever with compassion to life,
The compassion to put life back into others,
We cannot make the sick free from suffering,
But we can make them to understand them- by contemplation,
It is by doing that they gain the freedom to live and be alive.
May all be well and happy!
May all be given the strength to brighten others life!
“ As a doctor you do not always get to heal, but even so, its fine, just that at least you can care, care for them, it matters.”
With metta and compassion from Manipal,
All homage to the Triple Gems for their protection for me and others.
