Your Body Is Like A Dew-drop On

Through One Word, Or Seven Words, Or Three Times Five, Even If You Investigate Thoroughly Myriad Forms, Nothing Can Be Depended Upon. Night Advances, The Moon Glows And Falls Into The Ocean. The Black Dragon Jewel You Have Been Searching For, Is Everywhere.

Life And Death Are Of Supreme Importance. Time Swiftly Passes By And Opportunity Is Lost. Each Of Us Should Strive To Awaken. Awaken. Take Heed, Do Not Squander Your Life.

Zazen Is The Ultimate Practice. This Is Indeed The True Self. The Buddhadharma Is Not To Be Sought Outside Of This.

Realization Doesn't Destroy The Individual Any More Than The Reflection Of The Moon Breaks A Drop Of Water. A Drop Of Water Can Reflect The Whole Sky.

Coming, Going, The Waterbirds, Don't Leave A Trace, Don't Follow A Path.
