In order to see that garbage is a flower - flowers and garbage are inherently dual as well as suffering that makes happiness - afflictions are Bodhisattva, you need to return to yourself to take care of the flower of the soul to bloom and add more fragrance.

That is, when your mind is wandering, adventuring in a certain direction, return to yourself and be fully present with what is manifesting in the present.

Flowers are a symbol of beauty, fragrance and freshness, so everyone wants to see, love and cherish. As for garbage, it is dirty and smelly, so few people pay attention to it and just want to get rid of or eliminate it as far as possible. Although garbage is treated as disadvantaged, it still silently accepts to contribute to life the best.

The job of garbage is to make manure, helping gardeners cultivate flower beds, vegetable gardens, gourd trellises and many other fruit trees to be green, flower and bear fruit. On the other hand, thanks to farmers who know how to use organic fertilizers and limit the use of chemical fertilizers for fertilization and cultivation, fruits and vegetables are more nutritious and ensure good health for humans.

Therefore, garbage is not necessarily a dirty and evil thing that needs to be removed, but garbage has the ability to silently contribute positively to human life.

In our minds there are also two basic characteristics of flowers and garbage. We have good qualities such as goodness, diligence, gentleness, kindness, forgiveness, sympathy and help for those who encounter difficult and needy circumstances. That positive point symbolizes the fresh and beautiful flower inherent in each person. And when our minds are light, stable, and truly happy, it is the flower of our soul that blooms and is fragrant.

On the other hand, when the mind is greedy, angry, afraid, jealous, blameful, and selfish, the garden of the mind is growing many kinds of weeds and garbage. Therefore, a cultivator must know how to take care of his garden so that every day the fruits of love, understanding, and help life... are luxurious, blooming and exuding fragrance.

We know that a flower must be formed thanks to a combination of many other factors such as soil, water, green manure, air, sunlight, caregivers, etc. The flower does not exist alone, but it needs to rely on each other to arise and survive. If someone only likes to look at the top of the flower, but cuts off the dirty root part at the bottom, that fresh flower will only last a few days and then quickly wither and fade.

Therefore, garbage is very necessary and indispensable for flowers, and human life. In the same way, in our minds, there is quite a lot of disturbing garbage such as greed, anger, blame, fear, envy, discrimination, boredom, and so on. These negative seeds are hidden in the depths of our minds, and when they are met, they will exist and dominate people's lives, creating a lot of suffering and insecurity.

However, if we know how to practice and transform, the garbage of afflictions will also become a pure, fragrant flower and spread fragrance to donate to life. On the contrary, if we do not know how to cultivate and irrigate the flower every day, it will very quickly wither and fade. For humans, too, there are many times when we are happy next to our loved ones and are pampered and respected by our loved ones. But if we are still indifferent and do not know how to care for and cherish what we have, one day happiness will automatically take off and fly away, leaving emptiness, loneliness and sadness. This truth has been happening, if you do not quickly awaken to transform, it is difficult to avoid insecurity and breakdown.

In fact, the afflictions of suffering only manifest when our minds are obscured by the veil of ignorance, dominated by the manipulation of the greedy and naïve ego. When the tactile conditioning occurs, the ego immediately resists and rejects the object (anger), or wants to possess what it likes (greed). This reaction path distorts reality according to subjective perception, so an honest view cannot be shown. From there, we do not see garbage as an inevitable condition for making flowers, as well as facing suffering will help people understand the true nature of life.

Because we do not recognize the valuable and practical lessons from suffering, we lack the ability to transform our own suffering as well as to sympathize and share love with those who encounter difficult and difficult circumstances. For example, in a dirty garbage container, which contains extremely precious pearls, if we think that the garbage can is too dirty and refuses to put our hands in to take out the pearls, how stupid and wasteful. It can be said that the habit of rejecting and resisting reality is one of the fundamental causes of suffering.

Living in this life, no one wants difficulties to happen to them, but suffering is no exception to anyone. From the rich to the noble to the poor, there are sufferings and pains, whether more or less, that is true. However, if you know how to nurture and keep your mind calm and pure, you will not be entangled in any conditions that happen to you.

When the pure vision discovers the false perceptions and calculations of the greedy ego, then you are free to see the beauty of the river, the hills, the grass and the flowers, without being dependent on the notions of craving, possessing or hating.

All phenomena and things in this universe are always changing and new. You can't grasp or promise anything for yourself. Your job is to be in contact with the here and now reality. Do not take past notions and prejudices to impose on reality. How things are going is up to you to behave accordingly, there is no need to stereotype other people's ways and thinking.

If you live this content to the fullest, you will have a good relationship with everyone around you without hurting anyone, even if it is as small as a worm or an ant. When your mind is clear and open in this way, you will have a fresh and honest view in any area of life.

In order to see that garbage is a flower - flowers and garbage are inherently dual as well as suffering that makes happiness - afflictions are Bodhisattva, you need to return to yourself to take care of the flower of the soul to bloom and add more fragrance. That is, when your mind is wandering, adventuring in a certain direction, return to yourself and be fully present with what is manifesting in the present.

Every time your body and mind and current situation are illuminated, you will clearly see the inevitable relationship between yourself and life, between garbage and flowers. From there, you no longer hate, avoid, or exclude anything, because you know how to transform garbage into flowers – to turn suffering and unpleasant into joy and happiness.
