Be You III (Poem)

Ascension – Gedatsu – Egolessness

“There’s no suffering?” you ask.
“I see people suffering everywhere.”
“Are they really suffering?” I respond,
“Or that’s what you think.”

One can only control their own mind, how to perceive things in their life.
One can only learn what the joy is by going through sadness and hardship.

Be You II (Poem)

Ascension – Gedatsu – Egolessness

State of being, free from suffering.
Once you attain such a state, then what?
Just blissful death is waiting in the end?
Or, living like a hermit hiding from others and society altogether?

When you are in the state of Gedatsu,
You are free from egoistic bonding to earth.

Be You (Poem)

Ascension – Gedatsu – Egolessness

What is ego?
Earthly desires embedded in every individual’s mind.

What are earthly desires?
Thoughts that suffer people’s mind, causing agony and despair.

What is Gedatsu?
The state of being free from earthly desires, or the state of nothingness, or enlightenment.
