Good morning!
We have now bright, still, straight, and serene candle flames burning in the windless room. Likewise we can enjoy quite clear and calm state in the windless state of karmas.
When we go out of the room with candles, we may have a sudden gust extinguishing the flames instantly. Much more so, if we move or drive with them causing wind.
Nirvana and bodhi, awakening, are very precious treasures for us. We are fortunate to cultivate and verify in the awakened way like the blind turtle meeting a floating log.
Our life like a candle flame at each moment is very precious, but precarious becoming extinct and emptied any moment. We must take care of it well wakefully.
