Ajahn Dhammasiha encourages us to "be a good Santa".
A good Santa Claus will give all the gifts to the kids.
A bad Santa may cheat and keep the most expensive presents for himself.
Similarly, our task as followers of the Sakyan Sage is to not hold back, but to give absolutely everything away.
Not literally giving away, but letting go of absolutely everything:
Whether it's material objects, or relationships, loved ones, or our own feelings, emotions, thoughts, views, intentions, consciousness...
If we're a good Santa, we let go completely without holding back.
