AWAKENED

When illusion is gone, suffering disappears. When misunderstanding is gone, we are awakened. So we should have a drum all the time to wake us up, because we are constantly sleepy and ignorant. The time that we spend to be awake is so short and difficult to sustain, and the time that we keep ourselves busy, stressed and worried and desired about useless things is almost 90% of our life. Even if there is someone beating the drum for you, you don't even pay attention. Our life is gone like this. Life after life, we come back and keep missing many chances, doing the same illusive activities. Then, lives are like endless dreams or sometimes nightmares, even if we live a hundred lives, we will not be awakened. ~ The Gyalwang Drukpa
