Teaching pattern
The triumphal entry (Mark 11:2-10) read psychologically: you are Jesus; the colt not yet ridden is the new mood you assume, hard to ride without a disciplined mind, and each lapse is being thrown; ridden faithfully into Jerusalem (fulfilment, the city of peace), it moves others to spread palm leaves that cushion the journey. The story precedes the Passover.

Own wordings
You are Jesus of the story. The colt is the mood you are going to assume
A new feeling, like a young Colt, is a very difficult thing to ride unless you ride him with a disciplined mind
Every time you become conscious that you are not faithful to this mood, you have been thrown from the colt
you will ride the unbridled colt into the city of Jerusalem
They spread the palm leaves before me to cushion my journey
