Be Free and Light

May 4, 2023
Be Free and Light

When the weather is hot and dry,
we look forward to rain.

Rain doesn’t fall because we want it to,
but the more intense our wish grows,
the more miserable we feel.

True freedom is not being influenced
by whether or not it rains.

If it doesn’t rain, dig a well.
If it rains too much, build a dike.
If it’s too hot, wear light clothing.
If it’s too cold, put on more clothing.
Let go of your desires and be free.

Wisdom For You

How can I control my anger?

It isn’t easy to consciously control it, because anger is rooted in our unconscious. Instead of trying to control it, it’s more helpful to recognize our anger when it rises within us, a simple recognition of the fact that, “Oh, I’m getting angry.” The minute you notice your anger, it will stop growing.
