Lama Jigme Gyatso

The Buddha taught
that the fruit
of mastering
the four bases
of mindfulness
and the seven
enlightenment factors
is two fold:
true knowledge
and liberation.
True knowledge means,
amongst other things,
complete awareness
of the full spectrum
of our human emotions
from the glorious
to the grotesque.
Liberation means
that neither our inner Karen
nor our inner Chad
can ANY longer pull
the metaphoric levers
controlling our choices,
or utterances, or deeds.
