| when the Uncertain Experiencing of Reality
|
| is dawning upon me here,
|
| With every thought of fear or terror or awe for all
|
| set aside,
|
| May I recognize whatever appear,
|
| as the reflections of mine own consciousness;
|
| May I know them to be of the nature of apparitions in the Bardo:
|
| When at this all-important moment of achieving a great end,
|
| May I not fear the bands of Peaceful and Wrathful, mine own thought-forms.
|
| While wandering alone,
|
| separated from loving friends,
|
| When the vacuous, reflected boy
|
| of mine own mental ideas
|
| dawneth upon me,
|
| May the Buddhas, vouchsafing their power of compassion,
|
| Grant that there shall be no fear,
|
| awe, or terror in the Bardo. |
