Like a lake without a ripple, so is the mind of the one who has reached the shore of the Self.
Upanishadic Analogy
Vedantic Verse
Meaning:
Ripples in the mind are caused by the wind of desire. When the desires are stilled by the realization of the truth, the mind becomes a perfect and peaceful mirror for the Infinite.

Daily Application

Quiet your desires today by reminding yourself that you are already complete. As your wanting subsides, your mental ripples will settle, revealing the beautiful peace that is your true nature.
