The Septic Tank
Receipt, Reaction and Response
Are the phenomena of life.
Receipt of stimuli from the environs;
Reaction in the mind and intellect;
Response produced from stimuli.
Mind is accumulation of experience;
Intellect is accumulation of knowledge.
Mind and intellect form a unit,
Where input is churned and output is made.
Good water comes out as dirty water
When the unit is a washing machine.
Dirty water comes as good water
When the unit is a septic tank.
