SHACK 222 COMING AND GOING

taxatio.co.uk

Clouds come and go.  Never the same shape.

Delight in this spontaneity.  They follow the Way.

Photographs and Paintings.  Beautiful as they maybe, are not the same experience and feel.

They are the past-------gone by.

Experiencing for the first time is unique and original.

Trying to recapture that original feeling is labored and in vain.

Just a memory, a touch of that,  not the real original.

Holding fast to that memory, wonderful and pleasant as it may be.  Can deprive one of the next cloud.

Comparison denies one the new pristine experience.

This then is the lesson of attachment and rigid obstinate hard fastness.

Detachment has it; enjoy, appreciate then let go, clear and pure and so to the next and if there isn't a next enjoy that as well and let go of that.

Make space for the comings and goings.


SHACK
