Mind and Water

The glass of water is turbid
Set it aside awhile
Till the mud settles in a while
The mud shall settle
Then shall light pass through

The mind full of thoughts too is turbid
Set it aside
Watch it awhile
Thoughts float away
The Light within
Shines through

Amazing. simply amazing. ,A turbulent mind can't see light indeed.

It reminds me of the pain of opening eyes underwater. Simply wait until you resurface, and then all is well. Just wait. Patience. And then all is well.

Thank you K.S. namaste

how true! the glass is the body. when water takes the shape in the glass just like the mind in a body,
got to be watchful....
