Sometimes when I see people who are too serious about some foolish thing I think of something the Maharshi used to say:
When you are traveling on the train
will you keep the baggage on your head or under your feet?
This is the difference between the Wise
and the rest of the universe.
The Wise do not carry their baggage,
but almost everyone does.
Thinking of friends and finances and things not even come or already
gone is carrying your baggage. This is the difference between living in
peace or suffering. It depends on where your baggage is.
If you feel that the baggage you are carrying is of no use, drop it
down. Then walk away Enlightened into the realms where very few have
gone. Don’t carry anything.
