Atop the stupa, a statue of the Buddha sits immersed in tranquil meditation. Above restless tides, he abides in perfect equanimity. As prince he lived amid luxury; as ascetic he knew stark deprivation. Now balanced between extremes, he rests in flawless poise. In this state of imperturbable calm, he became a clear vessel for Akashic knowledge. By silencing rumination’s din, pure insight resonates through the silent mind. Intuition blossoms when thought’s static dissolves.
Yet the Buddha developed wisdom through earthly struggle. His path to enlightenment proved arduous, demanding assiduous efforts over lifetimes. He endured endless trials purifying body, speech and mind before ascending to Buddhahood. So do not expect illumination overnight. Be willing to spend long seasons tilling soil patiently. Awakening comes gradually to those tending diligently. Even reaching higher states, remain soberly committed to elevating humanity.
As exemplar, the Buddha demonstrated sublime virtues to emulate: compassion for all creatures, equanimity in adversity, rectitude in intent and action. He eschewed empty dogmas for wisdom validated by one’s conduct. By eradicating flaws within, outer divisions dissolve. As below, so above. Therefore perfect your character through lifelong introspection. Adhere always to the highest principles, regardless of surroundings. This secures a stable seat where the Buddha now rests undisturbed.
Know that Buddhahood exists as potential seed in all beings. But few choose to nourish it to fruition. The journey requires continually sacrificing lesser desires for liberation’s supreme aim.
Stay focused on this noble quest above fleeting distractions. Direct every resource to spiritual maturation. Only through prolonged refining discipline is the purified gold revealed. What the Buddha attained through eons of striving you too can acquire in time with undeviating purpose.
Be ever guided by those who attained self-mastery’s heights. But do not worship them like deities. Respect them as way-showers who walked the path ahead. Then like the Buddha, compassionately help others find footing on their own arduous ascents.
