Purifying the mind is like tending a garden or a flower garden.
Beautiful gardens and flower beds are not only kept beautiful by the vitality of the plants themselves, but also by careful care.
Weeds are removed, fallen leaves are picked up, plants are pruned, and new plants are planted - the garden is carefully maintained as a space that provides healing to visitors.
Isn't it the same for humans?
We clear away the distractions (weeds) that arise from our daily experiences, discard the ties and stereotypes (fallen leaves) of the past, and plant and nurture the new knowledge and skills we want to acquire.
By selecting what we want to add and what we want to remove from our lives, we create our own personal garden.
What state is your garden (your heart) in right now?
Is it difficult to walk through?
Are the leaves overgrown?
Do you feel comfortable walking through the garden?
Are you planting the flowers you like and growing the trees you want to see?
The reason why gardens and flower gardens are beautiful and soothing whenever you visit is because the good parts are utilized and polished every day, and care is taken to remove fallen leaves and other debris.
Cleanse your mind diligently and create a beautiful garden just for you.
Because there are bound to be people who want to visit the garden that you have created with your pure heart, and who will find healing in your garden.🍀
