Quoting from the Book of Sirach, in the apocrypha of the Bible:

“Do not boast about wearing fine clothes, and do not exalt yourself when you are honored; for the works of the Lord are wonderful, and his works are concealed from humankind. Many kings have had to sit on the ground, but one who was never thought of has worn a crown. Many rulers have been utterly disgraced, and the honored have been handed over to others.”

(Chapter 11, verses 4 to 6.)

I have spent a long time in suffering from the taints of the three poisons (which the Buddha has pointed out in the Dhamma):

  1. lust, greed, desire, craving
  2. hatred, aversion, ill-will, hostility
  3. ignorance, folly and delusion.

Nevertheless, these older men – who have suffered, for an even longer time, from pain of some kind or another – were generous enough to appear in a photo together with me.
