Love's Bath


A Buddha transcends creation, gaining freedom, because he takes nothing personally. But I like being a person.

A Bodhisattva feels the pain of all sentient beings, redeeming the whole world, because she takes everything personally. But I'm not that saintly.

So I don't follow the Buddha path or the Bodhisattva path. I just bathe my imperfections in the Master's perfect love, and trust that some spills over.
