- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- To a fly that likes the smell of putrid
- Meat, the fragrance of sandalwood is foul.
- Beings who discard nirvana
- Covet coarse samsara's realm.
- An ox's footprints filled with water
- Will soon dry up; so with a mind that's firm
- But full of qualities that are not perfect,
- These imperfections will in time dry up.
- Like salt sea water that turns
- Sweet when drunk up by the clouds,
- So a firm mind that works for others turns
- The poison of sense-objects into nectar.
- If ineffable, never is one unsatisfied,
- If unimaginable, it must be bliss itself.
- Though from a cloud one fears the thunderclap,
- The crops ripen when from it pours the rain.
