DAILY KOAN
The mind is the root of all our experience , both of ourselves and others . If we perceive the world in   unclear way thanks to all external distractions ... confusion and suffering will arise . We may be largely unaware of our ignorance and wrong views as someone with defective vision seeing the world as being upside down.Motivated by desire , hatred and bewilderment ... this untamed mind blindly pursues what it wants and lashed out at all that stands in its way , with little or no understanding of the things really are ...Normally we are so blind that we are unaware of how wild our minds really are . When things go wrong we tend to blame other people and circumstances , rather than look inside ourselves for the causes of the suffering . But if we are ever to find true peace or happiness it is that wildness within must be faced and dealt with ...Only then we can learn to use energy in more positive and balanced way ... so we will stop causing harm to ourselves and others ...
