In Autumn Even Though I May See

To Study The Way Is To Study The Self. To Study The Self Is To Forget The Self. To Forget The Self Is To Be Enlightened By All Things Of The Universe. To Be Enlightened By All Things Of The Universe Is To Cast Off The Body And Mind Of The Self As Well As Those Of Others. Even The Traces Of Enlightenment Are Wiped Out, And Life With Traceless Enlightenment Goes On Forever And Ever

The Recognition Of The Coming And Going Of Things Is A First Step In Training And Practice.

Consider That Nirvana Is Itself No Other Than Our Life.

Refraining From All Evil, Not Clinging To Birth And Death, Working In Deep Compassion For All Sentient Beings, Respecting Those Over You And Pitying Those Below You, Without Any Detesting Or Desiring, Worrying Or Lamentation - This Is What Is Called Buddha. Do Not Search Beyond It.

Life And Death Are Of Supreme Importance. Time Swiftly Passes By And Opportunity Is Lost. Each Of Us Should Strive To Awaken. Awaken. Take Heed, Do Not Squander Your Life.
