If mature people want to cut off the road of birth and death, they should relinquish what they have been holding dear, so that their senses become clean and naked. One day they will gain insight, and the road of birth and death is sure to end.
If you don't practice this in reality, but desire a lot of intellectual knowledge, thinking this is the wonder of self-realization, your chills and fever will be increased by the wind of intellectual knowledge; your nose will always be stuffy and your head will always be foggy.
