The Daily Enlightenment - June 9th: Words

A word conjures 10,000 different thoughts in 10,000 different minds.

What do the Buddha's words
conjure in yours?

Is your thought but one in a million?
How is it different?
What makes you so sure that's what the Buddha really meant?

The world thrives largely on illusions,
conjured by delusions.
Be ever clear.

Even the words of the Enlightened
can become deadly paths for the too deluded.
Cling not to words.
Cling not to your perceptions of them.
Words are afterall just words-
Guides and not the goal.
