Good morning!
The predicted snow did not come. The moon, however,
now waning almost to half, can be seen partially in the clouds.
I read a little bit of the best seller, The Power of Habit.
We can create new habits, either good ones or bad ones.
We must, however, come and see deeply enough into our karmas.
Good habits in the short term may be bad karmas in the long run.
That’s why we need to take care, cure, and cultivate our karmas
without stopping our practice in sitting, stilling, and settling.
While we are in karmas, we cannot see the true nature of them.
So, we must constantly and concentratedly come to nirvana and awakening.
