The clothes that acquire a stain
have to be washed several times
before the stain begins its process to lighten,
and with each wash, the stain takes its leave - l
eaving only lesser behind, until one day,
the clothes show complete disappearance of the stain.
Similarly, the process of your purification
will take several washings - washings in your repentance,
your efforts, your determination to accept sorrows and sufferings,
and your simple vow of ending all past deeds by the renunciation of
all desires, by overcoming every weakness of the mind,
by remaining unaffected with the temptful senses and
by surrendering to the will of the Lord and accepting His will as your command.
