Like a weed whose roots
have not been dug up,
Suffering returns again and again
to those who do not work on their thoughts.
The river of mindfulness
is what will cleanse you of
conditioned thought,
Through insight
cut away the creepers of stale thought.
Living whilst led by an untrained mind
one can rush about aimlessly like a trapped animal,
Caught up in delusion and weak thinking
they suffer over and over and over.
A lazy mind
will drag you down,
To the bottom
of despair.
Master your mind
become skilled in thinking
Control your desires
tame your craving
lose your attachments
and be free of your self-spun web of the senses.
Remain tied to these
you are both prisoner and executioner,
This the highest gift you must use
The Truth!
Weeds ruin growth
greed, ignorance, possessions, lust ill will, poor mind
Ruin man.
