Buddhism teaches that the world is on fire!
We are all living in a burning house,
But like a drugged person who sits in a
House that is on fire and is oblivious
To the peril,
We live our lives unaware of the consequences
Of our actions — the effects they will produce
In terms of the experiences that we will have
Both later in this incarnation and in our
Future lives.
Most people think that an enlightened Buddhist
Teacher is a fireman;
His job is to put the fire out so that
You can live in your home safely.
But seeker beware!
A fully enlightened Buddhist teacher is an
Arsonist!
His job is to set your spirit on fire!
By feeding the flames of your soul with love.
