You are here
Song to a Pigeon Goddess Girl
E MA HO
O Marpa from Lhodrak, you are the one
with that kindness, oh, so kind
By calling you up from my heart in my heart
you are when I meditate
Again and again I pray that we never again will separate
The bliss is the bliss of the blending of minds
when your own with the guru is fused
AH LA LA what appearances are
deep down in their basic being
They're the ever unborn, the dharmakaya
when this is pointed out
They fuse7 in the depths of dharmakaya
the ever uncontrived
I do not go checking on views to find out
if my own is high and others' are low8
This mind that's not tampered with, left uncontrived
is when feeling good feels just right
The emptiness luminosity
is mind in its basic being
Luminosity emptiness is awareness
when this is pointed out
They fuse in the depths of the uncontrived mind
you're home free in the native state
I do not go checking on meditation
to see if mine is good and yours bad
This mind that's not tampered with, left uncontrived
is when feeling good feels just right
The sixfold collection of consciousnesses
is lucid right there in itself
This, the non-dual: perceived, perceiver not two
when this is pointed out
The pleasure and pain duality too
is two where one and one equals one
What's left is the depths of the uncontrived mind
you're home free in the native state
I do not go checking on conduct to see
if I got it and the others missed out
This mind that's not tampered with, left uncontrived
is when feeling good feels just right
What the fruit of this is is dharmakaya
what success is all about
What variety is is nirmanakaya
when this is pointed out
They fuse in the depths where mind and object connect
and liberation is remembering that9
But to worry and wait for some result to come back
is not the kind of life for me
This mind that's not tampered with, left uncontrived
is when feeling good feels just right
