2020-03-03 | zen lecture

 Chula means ultimate. He who Buddha’s disciple was slow to learn. Buddha taught him to chant the verse of sweeping.

We can sweep our delusion with a broom.

We can avoid to forget with sweeping.

He had chanted for six years devotedly. He got enlightenment at last. Thus, he thought and said that a broom means sweeping, sweeping means removal, namely a broom is meant as Noble Eightfold Path. Our excrement means our dirt of three poisons. That means what sweeping our dirt of three poisons by the broom of Noble Eightfold Path. It might just say what is called meaning of a broom. If we think about the reason thoroughly, namely our heart can comprehend the truth. It is done the path of an arhat.
