2021.03.20 | We may think carrying a heavy block of gold will bring us happiness, but all we get is suffering, and there is no end to it. We all want lightness but pick up heaviness continuously. We carry burdens up until old age, sickness, and death, and then keep carrying it to the next birth as well. Seeing clearly the heavy object for what it is, we can realize lightness. To help realize this freedom, we go for refuge in the Buddha, Dhamma, and Sangha.
