Good morning!
When we get up early and come out of our houses, we can see many beautiful flowers blooming anew. When we come here, we enjoy fresh flowers at altars and all around us. We plant and prepare them.
Prognosis is to see far enough and prepare, to prevent before mishaps. It is useless to water plants after they die. So, we need to prognosticate what is going to happen to ourselves and others, to prepare and perfect the ultimate.
Lotus flowers have their fruit already in them. So, is our practice – we sit in the peace, purity, prognosis, and perfection already in flowers and fruits of unconditioned peace and unsurpassed awakening, tasting amrita, ambrosia of immortality.
