In Muddy Road two monks are traveling and one helps a young woman cross a river
(contact with women considered unwise and dangerous). They continue traveling until the
other monk asks why he did it, to which the first says, "I left the girl there. Are
you still carrying her?" The analogy woman : river :: burden : journey, represents
the woman as the burden the first monk still carries long after the second monk has already
set her down. It's a good reminder to release that which is not needed or helpful
for the journey ahead. Pendant is 1" turquoise leather with graphic
design, and it hangs from a 19" necklace of shimmering Czech glass spaced with
delicate Japanese seedbeads. Silver plated hook and eye clasp.
