Birds in the Hearts - Taking a Shower

Buddha Dharma is unlike common worldly knowledge.
It is the wisdom of ultimate "Emptiness."
Empty out your problems and desires;
let every kind of worry, dispute, mistrust,
or contradiction completely empty out,
without leaving any trace.
Then, you will be free of all burdens.
It is just like when we are sweaty and smelly,
and then take a shower;
right away it makes us feel so comfortable and so refreshed!
Buddha Dharma can do the same.
It can clear away all of the "haves" and the "have-nots,"
allowing the inner state to be clear, cool, and comfortable.
Ultimate "Emptiness" does not, however,
mean that there is absolutely nothing.
It means that you are letting the ideas and conceptions in
your mind return to freedom,
allowing all the happenings to come and go naturally,
setting everything free.
In the mean time, you will have set yourself free also.
