Being the Heart

"There is no other task but to know

your own original face. This is called 

independence; the spirit is clear and free...

Just look into your heart; there is a trancendental

clarity. Just have no greed and no dependency

and you will immediately attain certainty."

Yen-tóu, Zen master

 

Recognize the Heart

 

from which you are never apart

 

Stop the distracting beliefs in thought

 

You are always free and uncaught

 

The song of truth

 

is

 

prior to senses and mind

 

as the aware present love behind

 

Radiantly clear constantly here

 

is

 

this knowing brilliant light

 

of true sweet delight

 

aware of day

 

as well as

 

night
