Mid-Autumn

Greetings

 
The moonlight embraces the autumn breeze
As the waves echo my thoughts.
 
From a cup of tea flows a waft of fragrance;
The mind is at ease, pure and peaceful.
 
From a bowl of water,
Sprinkle the vast moonlit night,
Homage to Heaven,
Homage to Earth,
Homage to Buddha.
 
Thoughts of freedom and ease: thus I become.
Thoughts of satisfaction: thus I am.
Thoughts of achievement: thus I have.
 
All thoughts now cease —
I stroll in the night sky.
 
— Grandmaster JinBodhi
