I looked at trees and flowers; they were my Dharma companions. No one could deprive me of so many Dharma companions. I walked across rivers and plains, which offered limitless Dharma delight. No one could take that away from me or tell me I didn't have enough money. My Dharma joy was so fulfilling. If our minds are broad and open, we are freely given heaven and earth, the sun and the moon; they are all ours. We can have all time and space. In fact, we already do, and we simply must wake up to this truth. If all you can do is complain and get depressed about poverty and obstacles, you will be poor and ill at ease in all places and at all times. Your time and space will be an endless hell and a boundless sea of suffering.
