A Bow To Silence, Ayya Medhanandi

The spiritual path may be exceedingly long and demands nothing less than the most supreme culminating effort. But our patience and faith are radical.  In every moment of pure attention, insight into impermanence and awareness of Truth shatter our delusion. Though monstrous dangers and fears assail us, we sever the shackles of worldly views and attachments with the sword of wisdom – courageous to the last frontier of illumination, Nibbana itself.  Reflections given for OBS, May 19, 2023
