And that seems to be precisely what is happening now. I have a sneaking suspicion that my getting sick has to do with all the driving I’ve done in the lasst three days but that is really just an aside. What is important is how I meet this messenger. So, how am I using this experience to see into the nature of reality and to prevent myself from squandering my life? Well, at least I can say that I have adverted to its presence as a reminder of the limitations of samsaric existence which is something I was failing to do all day.
