Muddy Mind And Pure Consciousness
Buddha was once on His way to deliver a sermon in a village with His disciple Ananda. On their way, they crossed over a small canal and proceeded further. It was a hot day and the sun was blazing. Buddha felt thirsty and rested under a tree.
He asked Ananda to get Him some water to quench His thirst from the canal that they had just crossed. In the meantime, a bullock cart had crossed the canal making the water muddy.
Ananda
on
finding
the
water
muddy
returned
back
to
Buddha
saying
that
the
water
was
not
clean.
Buddha
insisted
Ananda
to
wait
for
sometime
until
the
water
becomes
clean
and
then
fetch
some
to
quench
His
thirst.
So when Ananda went back he still found the water not good enough to drink. He waited for a while and went into meditation.
After
his
meditation,
Ananda
was
surprised
to
find
the
mud
settled
and
the
crystal
clear
water
fit
to
be
drunk.
Osho
says
that
same
is
the
case
with
our
minds
too.
Thoughts
are
like
the
mud
which
pollutes
the
consciousness.
Our
consciousness
gets
cleared
the
moment
we
cease
paying
attention
to
thoughts,
cooperating
with
them,
analysing
them
and
bothering
them.
It
is
only
then
that
silence
descends
in
pure
consciousness.
