Story 33 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.
A healthy component of the practice is to stay awake to encroaching spiritual materialism. This danger begins to raise its head after you think of yourself as an experienced practitioner. You may judge your practice as quite advanced. You pat yourself on the back. You start acquiring compliments. Thoughts that you might teach someday may flutter through your consciousness. Don’t indulge in these meanderings. Keep an eye on them as you would a spot of crabgrass on an otherwise pristine lawn.
