- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha. Chant by Ma Prem Geeta (Japanese).
- The sutra
- My abiding place
- Has no pillars;
- It is roofless --
- Yet the rain does not wet it,
- Nor the wind strike it.
- When it blows,
- The mountain wind is boisterous,
- But when it blows not,
- It simply blows not.
- Though it has no bridge,
- The cloud climbs up to heaven;
- It does not ask aid
- Of Gautama's sutras.
- Ripples appear
- On the unaccumulated water
- Of the undug well,
- As the formless, bodiless man
- Draws water from it.
- The mind:
- Since there is really
- No such thing as mind,
- With what enlightenment
- Shall it be enlightened?
