tonglen

Tonglen
10-5-15

Out of Joppa into Antiratris
And many new places to see
It's new to me
What is so special about me?
Why do I strive for my happiness alone
May I see myself as less than others
Yet to consider difficult people as precious and dear
As to see that love will overcome all fear
So just stay and help me to begin another day
Regard those who do you ill to be as teachers
For the midnight blue and the morning gold
Regard him as a sacred friend and embrace the cold for Tonglen
It all works out for our own best interests....





Counterclockwise
10-5-15

Counterclockwise back into Samaria
For giving and receiving your enemy is the true provider
Of all your virtue
Challenging is to develop ones strengths
Do you understand what you are reading?
O, how can I unless someone guides me
If you believe with all your heart you may
O, what hinders me today
Being planted again while praised
Taught to stop viewing our circumstance
In terms of good and bad
In that it just is...





Sames Attract
10-5-15

Becoming happy upon achieving fame or success
To be free from the bondage of opposites
Where in reality the sames attract
At the chime of four I make the most of the morning glory
Right before God's amazing grace
Hoping to be more effective in helping others
As One today to gain brothers
To actively transmit happiness towards the world
Instead of receiving it from it our holy secret
Exchanging of self for others
For this tonglen of giving and receiving.....
