A Song of Those Who Are Full of Love But Free of Attachment
A Song of Those Who Are Full of Love But Free of Attachment
Friends are empty forms, like a water moon
To think of them as being truly real
Will only make your many sufferings increase
To think of them as being truly real
Will only make your many sufferings increase
To know they're empty forms, like a watermoon
Will make illusion-like samadhi increase
Compassion free of clinging will increase
And non-referential view will also increase
And meditation that's fixation-free
And conduct free of doer, deed increase
Of all the many marvels, this, by far the most marvelous!
Of all the many wonders, this, the most wonderful!
