Dispassion
1
Seeing to this,
Neglecting that,
Setting one thing against another. . .
Who is free of such cares?
When will they ever end?
Consider.
Without passion,
With dispassion,
Let go.

My child,
Rare is he, and blessed,
Who observes the ways of men
And gives up the desire
For pleasure and knowledge,
For life itself.

Nothing lasts.
Nothing is real.
It is all suffering,
Threefold affliction!
It is all beneath contempt.
Know this.
Give it up.
Be still.

When will men ever stop
Setting one thing against another?
Let go of all contraries.
Whatever comes, be happy
And so fulfill yourself.

Masters, saints, seekers:
They all say different things.
Whoever knows this,
With dispassion becomes quiet.

The true master considers well.
With dispassion
He sees all things are the same.
He comes to understand
The nature of things,
The essence of awareness.
He will not be born again.

In the shifting elements
See only their pure form.
Rest in your own nature.
Set yourself free.

AFTERNOON
The sage is indifferent.
He does not hanker after more pleasure,
nor does he refuse whatever may come to him by way of experience.
There is no volition, either positive or negative,
because there is no separate entity to choose,
want or strive for anything.

nor does he refuse whatever may come to him by way of experience.
There is no volition, either positive or negative,
because there is no separate entity to choose,
want or strive for anything.
Man, unaware of the seamless unity of all things,
pulls in one direction and in turn finds himself
pulled helplessly in the opposite direction.
pulls in one direction and in turn finds himself
pulled helplessly in the opposite direction.
He considers himself superior to his environment
and yet is ignorant even of the origin of his own thoughts.
He does not truly know whether any action of his
is really of his own volition or predetermined.
and yet is ignorant even of the origin of his own thoughts.
He does not truly know whether any action of his
is really of his own volition or predetermined.
He thinks he can shape his own destiny
and yet is piteously anxious about his future.
He does not realize that his confusion lies within,
in the knotted, convoluted tangle of his own conceptualization,
and not in outside conditions.
