inflamed by greed,
incensed by anger,
confused by delusion,

obsessed by these,
overcome by these,
man causes his own suffering.

greed
is wanting things
to occur as we wish.

anger
arises when we fail
to obtain what we want.

a lute’s strings tightly strung will break
strings loosely strung will not play
with balance, comes a pleasing sound.

just as with a lute
serenity is found when one’s life is
properly balanced.

we do not get what we desire.

some of the time,
this can be very fortunate.

why become angry
when we fail to control others,
when we cannot control ourselves?

once the thought arises
the word is spoken,
and the deed is done.
the thought
the word
the deed
will live on and impact others long after
we have ceased
thinking
speaking
doing.

counteract greed with contentment.

if something new

comes our way,
be content

if it passes us by,
be content.

when there are no thoughts
of giving to others,
of having offered,
of sacrifices made,

we are advancing
towards awakening.

there are four things conducive
to the uncovering of wisdom:

association with those who are virtuous

listening well and deeply
practicing sincerely.

who is calm in the face of chaos,
content among the desirous,
peaceful among the violent,

is awakening.

the just person is one
who does not arbitrarily
pass judgement,

but thinks deeply and
judges impartially.

a drop of rain
falls gently on a leaf and slowly rolls off.
it does not have thoughts of like or dislike.
it does not attach.

likewise,
our minds should see everything clearly,
without differentiation
without attaching.
