More than You can Chew

By Luang Phaw Dhammajayo 

 

 

 

When it comes to the subject of ‘merit’,
there’s no such thing as
‘biting off more than you can chew’.
Rather you should consider it as
‘rising to the challenge’
because this is how perfections are pursued.
We have to go against the fl ow,
meeting resistance and hardship,
to have our resolve tested.
Just as the bodhisatta
had to part with wealth, blood,
and often his life,
in order to earn perfections in return.
