Comparisons
contributed
by Kathryn Lim
Comparison
brings inferiority, superiority. When you don't compare, all inferiority,
all superiority, disappears. Then you are, you are simply there.
A small bush or a big high tree—it
doesn't matter; you are yourself. You are needed. A grass leaf
is needed as much as the biggest star. Without the grass leaf
God will be less than he is. This sound of the cuckoo is needed
as much as any Buddha; the world will be less, will be less rich
if this cuckoo disappears.
Just
look around. All is needed, and everything fits together. It is
an organic unity: nobody is higher and nobody is lower, nobody
superior, nobody inferior. Everybody is incomparably unique.
Who
ever told you that the bamboo is more beautiful than the oak,
or the oak more valuable than the bamboo? Do you think the oak
wishes it had a hollow trunk like this bamboo? Does the bamboo
feel jealous of the oak because it is bigger and its leaves change
color in the fall? The very idea of the two trees comparing themselves
to each other seems ridiculous, but we humans seem to find this
habit very hard to break. Let's face it, there is always going
to be somebody who is more beautiful, more talented, stronger,
more intelligent, or apparently happier than you are. And conversely,
there will always be those who are less than you in all these
ways. The way to find out who you are is not by comparing yourself
with others, but by looking to see whether you are fulfilling
your own potential in the best way you know how.
