- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- When (in winter) still water by the wind is stirred,
- It takes (as ice) the shape and texture of a rock.
- When the deluded are disturbed by interpretative thoughts,
- That which is as yet unpatterned turns very hard and solid.
- Mind immaculate in its very being, can never be
- Polluted by samsara's or nirvana's impurities.
- A precious jewel deep in mud
- Will not shine, though it has luster.
- Knowledge shines not in the dark, but when the darkness
- Is illumined, suffering disappears (at once).
- Shoots grow from the seed
- And leaves from the shoots.
- He who thinks of the mind in terms of one
- Or many, casts away the light and enters the world.
- Into a (raging) fire he walks with open eyes --
- Who could be more deserving of compassion?
