This elegant ritual renews holiness and expresses with simple eloquence our gratitude for the opportunity to learn. The major trick in life is to establish a symbiotic relationship with everything. You must live your life through your conditioned character, but you don't have to act like a character. Life is not a sitcom. Immersing yourself in things, situations, or objects is a sure-fire recipe for future agony.
Life is really more about letting go of things than of grasping more and more.
It's about generating the passion to be empty of complexity and chaos. Everything is one. Every moment is a recycling of every thought that has ever been born. Nothing is far away. We are enshrouded in no-thing.
