Purification of One's Mind |
Imagine standing in a gentle shower of immortal rain—a cleansing downpour that washes away old judgments, worries, and the need to cling to appearances. In this rain, you can let go of the mirror that distorts your sense of self. There is no fixed face, just a fluid, ever-changing expression of life.
### Letting Go of the Mirror
- **Release Self-Judgment:** When you shed the mirror, you free yourself from the constant habit of judging your actions and your appearance. You begin to see yourself more clearly, not as a fixed image, but as a living process.
- **Embrace Emptiness:** With no mirror to define you, the idea of a permanent self dissolves. Emptiness here isn’t a void but a space filled with endless possibilities. It is the realization that the mind and body are simply temporary forms—a dance of names and sensations without a permanent owner.
### Experiencing Deep Perception
There are moments when you let your thoughts settle. In this stillness, you don’t analyze or reflect; you simply observe the natural unfolding of life. In those moments, you might even sense your whole being breaking into pieces—not in a painful way, but as a revelation of how transient and interconnected every aspect of life truly is.
- **Pure Observation:** Allow yourself to watch reality as it is, without overthinking or labeling. It’s in this pure state of awareness that the true nature of things shows itself.
- **The Three Marks of Existence:** As you deepen your observation, you will notice that everything is constantly changing, that every experience has moments of hardship, and that there isn’t a permanent “self” behind these experiences. This insight is both humbling and liberating.
### A Path Toward Freedom
By loosening the grip of old spiritual burdens and purifying your inner spirit, you step into a life where hands, head, and mind are truly free. There is no need for perfection, no shadow of doubt—only a light-hearted carefreeness that allows you to live each moment fully.
- **Spiritual Purification:** Letting go of past transgressions and attachments opens up the space for a clearer, more compassionate way of living.
- **Embrace Freedom:** With this newfound sense of freedom, your journey becomes a joyful exploration of life’s fluid nature. Every breath and every moment is an opportunity to experience true inner peace.

This journey is about finding clarity in the ever-changing dance of life. Just as the immortal rain cleanses and renews, each step you take towards letting go brings you closer to a state of inner freedom. Enjoy the process, and let every moment be a chance to rediscover yourself beyond labels and illusions. How does this vision of inner freedom resonate with you?
