No.305 - The essence of practice


The essence of our practice is to watch intention and examine the mind. You must have wisdom. Don’t discriminate. Don’t get upset with others if they are different. Would you get upset at a small and crooked tree in the forest for not being tall and straight like some of the others? That would be silly. Don’t judge other people. There are all varieties. No need to carry the burden of wishing to change them all. If you want to change anything, change your ignorance to wisdom.
(Ajahn Chah)
