Enlightment

Before Enlightment Chop wood carry water. After enlightment chop wood carry water- Zen Quotes

There shall be several false prophet
It has been written in the Holy bible
And even God does not differentiate
Between a master and a disciple.

Enlightment is not a foot step to the throne
One has to still work harder for his food
Sage too has to  feed his flesh and bone
Even  has to carry water and chop wood.

In every hard working man exists an sage
Enlightment dawns on a hardworking ant
God doesn’t care for  caste creed or age
In my garden exists an enlightened plant.

An enlightened man doesn’t need a throne
Nor does he need a luxury car to drive
he can sit comfortably on a block of stone
Communicating with the nature he thrives.- Vasant Khisty


There are very few people in this world who have been enlightened by truth, and these men did not seek any privilege. They earned their bread as they did before enlightment. A true sage can never be noticed. There can be sages amongst us who are un noticed. Working hard with the right intention is also a way to enlightment.
