They wonder what it means to “learn Religion,”
Uncertain what to study or how.
Dhamma classes and Pali language aren’t enough,
Graduate to meditation and vipassana.

Learn and learn again, all you get is “learning.”
Some develop the “religion crazed” illness
With many things foolhardy and excessive,
Till filled up with status and gains, losing Nibbana.

The only place to learn religion is in the eyes and ears,
Whenever dukkha occurs at one sense or another.
Learn how to withdraw the bridge, so
That Mara hasn’t a chance to mess with you.

Learn directly right there in the suffering,
Looking with the right method and model
Intercept the concocting process of the troubled
mind, so it calms down and dukkha disappears.
