Buddhist Parable 33: Delusion
The human excrement that we consider fetid and dirty is regarded as fragrant, clean and succulent by animals such as insects and worms—because of their deluded karma.
They therefore compete and struggle to gobble it up.
The defiled desires of this world are considered by humans as lovely and clean.
However, the Gods and Immortals see them as foul smelling, dirty and unclean, not unlike the way human beings regard insects and worms eating filthy substances.
The various desires of sentient beings, defiled and upside down, are generally thus.
The practitioner should strive gradually to destroy them.
