I have cultivated several times in my past lives. Once upon a
time, I became a Buddhist monk and cultivated in a temple. For
the time in that life, I had been cultivating for many years.
Sometimes, I was required to roam among everyday people for cultivation
purposes. One day, I went to beg for alms in a city. A girl
greeted me in a refined and courteous manner. She said, "Are you
hungry or tired? Please have a seat." I was a bit surprise, but
had no time to attend to the matter. After the alms, she left and
I did not take it to heart.
Some years passed. At last, I reached consummation. At that
moment, I was rising up to the air while I was sitting. On my
way, I suddenly thought of the girl who offered alms to me several
years ago. The moment when I was wondering whether it was
something that I had been a concern, the girl's smiling face appeared
in my mind. Then, in a flash, a string appeared behind the
mind. "Beng"! In a cracked sound, I found myself falling from the
air to the earth with a thump.
On dear! I ended in vain after having painstakingly cultivated for many
years, because I was perturbed by
"affection".
