Guest guest Posted August 23, 1999 Report Share Posted August 23, 1999 >From a posting we received:- Verse #12 discusses the renunciation of enjoyment: The objects of enjoyment, even after staying with us for a long time, are sure to leave us sometime. Then what difference does their privation make to men, that they do not of their own accord discard them? If the enjoyments leave us on their own initiative, i.e. if they tear themselves from us, they produce great affliction of the mind: if men voluntarily renounce then, they conduce to the eternal bliss of self-possession. What a wonderful way to encourage letting go... Edith ========= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
