The Fundamentals

Post by avatamsaka3 »

kamma...
in the void a thought
creates a cosmos

refuge...
what good are dying flowers
when the stars explode?

ācariya...
through stone walls
sunlight in my palms

buddha...
the mountain is made of
oceans of light

mandala...
Right View, Right Resolve, Right Effort
these heart-moments

bodhisatta...
firefly goes into a
collapsing mineshaft

Well said.
Happy Pride month to my queer dharma siblings!

What do you see when you turn out the lights?

Beautiful, and reminds me of the Highest Truths in Buddhism. May Your Spiritual Bodhisattvic Light shine on and out of the other side of the mine-shaft swiftly and into Nirvana, for you have spent time saving many! Om.
