  cleanliness
(denoting the alive precepts)

 The precepts truly behaved 

could be observed

at cleanliness appeared,

 both inside and outside,

called alive precepts.

The fake or died precepts

is only revised.

Clean up every drop neatly,

clearly and shiny.
Wipe and rub softly,
the mind proud and bright,
rising intrinsic precepts
to extinguish poverty.

The thoroughly cleaning
could be done with patience.
Happiness and fulfillment
is so near hand, only cleaning
by simply wiping and rubbing,
but people overlook it.

Precepts are really the great treasure,
never ate up or used up,
 only need really clean up neatly,
as said.
Various enemy and danger
could not harm.
This is the Buddhist precepts.

It is so simple that
everyone overlooks,
but so profound to understand.
With high confidence and
all heart practice to love cleanliness.
especially rubbing restroom.

Cleanliness loving appeared in feeling
clearly.
Being happy arose,
the inner happiness is great
leading to being beyond suffering,
and life is fulfilled completely.

KHUN YAI (คุณยายมหัศจรรย์) (8/5):: Teach your self. No one had to teach me.

KHUN YAI

(8/5)

Teach your self.

No one had

to

teach me.

I'm

a stickler

of

cleanliness.

To others,

this is a reflection

of my character

and makes everyone trust me.

The same thing

happen

when I live with

Tongsuk at Wat Paknam.

I organized everything

and clean every object

in sight until

the whole house was spotless.

When I was permitted

into the super-advanced 

meditation elite class

(known as the "meditation factory").

I was

given

the

oldest bed.

That was

infested

with

bedbugs.

The mosquito net

was old,

dirty

and worn out.

I

did

not

complain.

To be given

an opportunity

to meditate here

was good enough for me.

KHUN YAI (คุณยายมหัศจรรย์) (8/4) :: Teach yourself. My father didn't teach me.

KHUN YAI

(คุณยายมหัศจรรย์)

(8/4)

Teach yourself.

My father

didn't

teach me.

My mother

didn't

teach me.

I taught myself.

I'm

a stickler

for

cleanliness.

I won't

let anything

escape me,

without making a clean.

When

I see

something

dirty.

I make a note of it

in my mind

to come back

and clean it.

Once,

I saw mildew

at a corner

of the stair case.

I marked it

in my mind

and came back

to clean it,

Along with

every thing else

until the whole area

was sparkling clean.

I did this

in its entirely

until there was nothing left

to be clean.
