While i was on my month-long retreat here at home, i took cuttings from most of my houseplants. Boy, they really look better, all trimmed down and very neat. Less is more. Less plant is more beautiful, in this case.Another chore i did while on retreat was to go through my attic, one box at a time. The attic is looking "thinned out" too.
Reliquishing stuff is one of the qualities of a bodhisattva.
Simplifying my possessions or my houseplants feels so good. Counter-intuitively, having less feels good. Amazingly, having less feels better than wanting more. Take a look, feel for yourself.
