A potter collects clay from the river bank,
mixes water in it, puts it on a wheel, and makes pots.
The pot cannot hold water unless it undergoes
refinement through fire.
Just as a pot becomes strong when it is
processed in fire, man becomes God when he
undergoes refinement in the fire of wisdom.
The pot that came from mud will
ultimately disintegrate and become one with it.
Likewise, every object and every being in this world
will ultimately go back to its source of origin.
