"Let Go"

Once Upon a time a Senior monk & Junior monk were on a journey. As they moved forward on their journey they came across a raging river on who's bank there stood a Young lady. She was clearly concerned about "How she would get about to the other side of the river ?" The Junior monk straight passed her without giving a thought. The Senior monk, however picked up the Women and carried her across the river. He placed her down and both parted away on their journey. As the journey went on Senior monk could sense some concern on the junior monk mind. He asked him "What was Wrong ?" Junior Monk replied, "How can you carry her like that? You know we are prohibited from even touching women's ! It's against our way of Life". The Senior monk replied "I left the women on the river's edge a long way back, why are you still carrying her ?" The Senior monk had broken the rules for benevolent reason. Once the purpose was full-filled he put her down and continued on. He never gave a further thought. But Junior monk however, he never touched the women & bought up the actions of Senior monk when it was an action of past. Therefore, The Junior monk was carrying the burden of what Senior monk has done as an Emotional Baggage. You see we all have little use for past experience (except for learning) whether good or bad. Like this story we need to let go all our past burden that past has placed upon us. It's Happened, it's over & we can do nothing to change that, we need to move on forward. And create a compelling future for ourselves. If you hang upon something in past which gave you suffering. Every time you think about it and re-live it, it give's you nothing but more suffering. You end up in a Suffering Cycle created by yourself. "So Stop Worrying & Let The Past Go. In this way you can enjoy the future."
