Bonsai Trees

Filed under: Teachings — roshihogan @ 12:21 am

Bonsai trees are little trees you take care of in your home. They are delicate and have to be trimmed and properly watered. Our practice is like that. We have to maintain it so it will grow. That may mean trimming on occasion, making sure we do not under or over water it. We cannot just set it on a shelf or table to just look at. It takes some care to have a healthy practice.
