Stuck

Yutang Lin


Right or wrong, light or heavy, it varies with people.
Each one comes to his pass and becomes stuck there.
Grasping to pennies and forgetting pounds, they regress.
Seeing it to be causally so, we constantly pray for them.

Comments:

People who regressed on the Dharma path usually were mindful of trifling and trapped in a web of their own illusive thoughts. Once stuck there, it would be difficult to escape. Each one chooses his or her path; it is only natural and causally so. We can only pray constantly for their sooner enlightenment and emancipation.
