Mind Mirror

Mind is a glass mirror
standing in front you see
yourself and the world around
while seeing a flower you only see
surface of the mirror in which
flower is reflected...
so is in the mirror of mind
lie all that you perceive
through the senses...
mirror reflects because
it is coated with silver - rasa!
Should there be no rasa,
mirror will become a glass...
then you see no more yourself or the world...
you see what is beyond through it
So is with the mind...
when rasa, the lingering taste of
worldliness is no more..
end all perceptions and
the transparent mind becomes
the window to see what lies behind and beyond...

Meditation is when
the mind mirror becomes
glass window of the Self!

The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them - Thomas Merton
================================Humor
This little girl comes home from her first day at Kindergarten school. And she goes to daddy and says "I am never going to school again."
"Why??"
"Because my teacher said, 5+5=10; 6+4=10;7+3=10;8+2=10; and that 9+1=10!"
"And your point is???"
"SO SHE NEEDS TO MAKE UP HER MIND!!!"
