Looked down upon my dress stained
While at work
Wondered why I did not wear an apron
For it would have kept the stains off

Then as I wore the apron there came a little whisper from deep within

"Just as you wear an apron to work
To come out of work unstained and unhurt
Thus shall  you wear the apron of non-attachment
Not be stained by like and dislike
Opposites of every color and hue
Working living a full life of all hues

Yet untouched by  all"

good analogy! just like a rain coat, it is essential to know when to wear and when to remove too.

who said kitchen is a place only to cook? look at the availability of the mind to the insight...beauty!

Dear Merging Point: Yes, indeed, Truth Is Omnipresent, its just a matter of availability to it. Thank you
