James Taylor's song Up Emei
We were walking in paradise.
Never did notice
Blind in the Buddha land
Looking for solace
We had been told of a place
Far beyond this vale of tears
We could never have guessed
We were already blessed
There we were, where we are
In the garden
Didn't we climb on up Emei
Temple to Temple
Yes and all and all along the way
The day was simple
Didn't we reach the top
Didn't we gain our goal
Did we finally stop
Suprised by the cold
We were walking in paradise
Never did tumble
Blind in the Buddha land
Looking for trouble
We had been told of a place
Far beyond this vale of tears
We could never have guessed
We were already blessed
There we were, where we are
In the garden

Three Poems
An Ocean of Wisdom
Like waves on the ocean thoughts come and go.
Arising from the depths of Mind its origin is clear.
Coming from nowhere and going nowhere.
Are we any different?
A Sky filled with Buddhas
Sit like a mountain with a view like the sky.
Clouds ever changing dance through the mind.
Where do they come from and where do they go?
All questions dissolved, who, what, where, when and why!
A River Runs Through It
Never asleep always awake.
The tranquil clear water’s continuous flow.
No beginning or end the ocean receives all.
Heavy rains come in the fall.
.
Tilpoa’s Song of Mahamudra
Mahamudra is beyond all words
And symbols, but for you Naropa
Earnest and loyal, must this be said?
Emptiness needs no reliance. Mahamudra rests on nothing.
Without making an effort, but remaining loose and natural,
One can break the yoke thus gaining liberation.
If one sees nothing when staring into space, and with the
mind
one observes the mind, one destroys all distinctions and
reaches Buddhahood.
The clouds that float through the sky have no roots and no
home,
Nor do the distinctive thoughts that float through the mind.
As soon as one discovers the nature of their own mind,
discrimination stops.
In space shapes and colors form, but neither by black or
white is it changed.
From ones own mind all thing emerge, but by virtue or vice
it is not stained.
The darkness of ages cannot block the glowing sun.
Neither can the long kalpas of samsara hide the mind’s
brilliant light.
Though words are spoken to explain the void, the Void itself
can never be expressed.
Though we say the mind is a bright light, it is beyond all
words and symbols.
Although the mind is empty in essence, all things it
embraces and contains.
Do nothing with the body but relax. Shut firm the mouth and
silent remain.
Empty your mind and think of nothing.
Rest like hollow bamboo without giving or taking, and put
your mind at ease.
Mahamudra is like a mind that clings to nothing. Thus
practicing in time you’ll reach Buddhahood.
The practice of Mantra and Paramita, instructions in Sutras
and Precepts, teachings from Schools and scriptures will not bring realization
of the innate truth.
For if the mind when filled with some desire should seek a
goal, it will only hide the light.
He who keeps tantric precepts yet discriminates betrays the
spirit of samaya.
Cease all activity, abandon all desire, let thoughts rise
and fall like waves on the ocean.
He who never harms the non-abiding nor the principle of
non-distinction,
upholds the tantric precepts.
He who abandons carving or clinging to this or that,
Perceives the real meaning of the scriptures.
In Mahamudra one’s sins are burned.
In Mahamudra one is released from the prison of this world.
This is the Dharma’s supreme torch. Those who disbelieve it
are fools who won’t escape misery and sorrow.
To strive for liberation one should rely on a guru.
When your mind receives his blessing emancipation is at
hand.
Alas, all things in this world are meaningless; they are but
sorrow’s seed.
Small teachings lead to acts, so one should only follow
teachings that are great.
To transcend duality is the kingly view.
To conquer distractions is the royal practice.
The path of no-practice is the way of the Buddhas,
He who treads that path reaches Buddhahood.
Transient is this world, like phantoms and dreams.
Substance it had none.
Renounce it and forsake your kin, cut the string of lust and
hatred.
Meditate in woods and mountains.
If without effort you remain loosely in the natural state, soon
Mahamudra you will win and attain the non-attainable.
Cut the root of a tree and the leaves will fall.
Cut the root of your mind and samsara will fall.
The light of any lamp can displace the darkness of a long
kalpa.
The strong light of mind can in a flash burn the veil of
ignorance.
Whoever clings to mind sees not the truth of what’s beyond
the mind.
Whoever strives to practices Dharma finds not the truth of
beyond-practice.
To know what is beyond both mind and practice, cut through
the root of mind and stare naked. Breaking away from all distinctions, remain
at ease.
Give nor take but remain natural, for Mahamudra is beyond
all acceptance and rejection.
Since alaya is not born n one can obstruct it or soil it.
Staying in the unborn realm all appearances will dissolve
into Dharmata and so will self-will and pride.
The supreme understanding transcends this and that.
The supreme action embraces great resourcefulness without
attachment.
The Supreme accomplishment is to realize immanence without
hope.
At first a yogi feels his mind is tumbling like a waterfall.
In mid-course like the Ganges it flows on slow and gentle.
In the end it is a great vast ocean where the lights of Son
and Mother merge into one.

Some Venerable Sayings
Shakyamuni: If you have suffering, it’s
because of your karma. Karma can be eradicated, by following the eightfold
path.
Bodhidharma: Don’t use a Buddha to worship a Buddha.
Huineng: There are no trees in Bodhi, nor is there a place
to hang a mirror. Since primordially there in not a thing, where can dust
alight.
Huihai: If you chase the Buddha you’ll run around in samara
like a dog chasing his tail for eons. But, if you realize the nature of your
own mind you’ll instantly see all of the Buddhas in all of the Buddha realms.
Linji: Hik!!!
Padmasambhava: Turn to the cave.
Garchen Rimpoche: With the root guru on the crown of your
head, seek the blessings of all the sublime beings.
Pusa Ding Rimpoche: It doesn’t matter what color hat you're
wearing, it’s all the same Buddha Dharma.
Linhai: Practice doesn’t make perfect. Only prefect practice
make perfect.
