Dharmas Are Medicine

Dharma is usually defined
as the teaching of the Buddha,
and this teaching
is medicine
which can bring about
a temporary cure
but is neither true nor false,
so a teaching like
The Sickness Is The Health
popped into my head
this morning
and I was cured
for a little while,
but if you cling
to a Dharma,
and repeat it
again and again,
it won't work
and it might make you
sick again,
so we must not forget
the regular understanding
of things like,
The Sickness Is The Sickness
and The Health Is The Health,
or we will overdose
on Dharma medicine,
which can make us
quite sick.
