Bhikku monks
AN ART ESSAY
The Buddha said: These four are the foodstuffs, ye bhikkus, which sustain the creatures that are born, and benefit the creatures that seek rebirth. The first is edible food, coarse or fine; touch is the second; the thinking capacity of the mind is the third; and the fourth is consciousness.
Understand that you own nothing; everything that surrounds you is temporary; only the love in your heart will last forever.
Whatever is not yours, let go of it. Your letting go will be for your long-term benefit and happiness.
