________________ Jain Education International When a farmer wants to start planting, he first clears the ground of weeds and stones and then he sows the seeds. One day his labour is rewarded. The farmer is delighted when the first produce of the harvest is brought into his home. The same is true in our lives. If we want to sow the seeds of bliss and godliness in our inner being, then we must first clear from our minds the tangled thicket overgrown with the weeds of passion, negativity and ill-feeling. The more independent you are of traditional beliefs or sectarian prejudices, the more the doors of truth will open for you. Only a mind that is free and unconstrained can achieve the experience of complete liberation. For Private & Personal Use Only The Jains through Time ny www.jainelibrary.org
