Neither same
nor different
can really be
identified so
by faculties
that sense
perceive
objects
to register in
consciousness
maybe pleasant
or unpleasant
neither nor
dependent
on each other
in existence
come to be
not caused
conditioned
nor on their own
what a wondrous
suchness of reality
neither same nor different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enlightenment
inherent in one
understanding
falsifies it all
understood
who does it
deluded split
into compatible
and incompatible
with shared karma
union or separation
in emotional love
hunger exists
for each other
to steal and kill
such distortion
perpetuated
by adding any
understanding
to the inherent
enlightenment in all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from ‘is’
and from ‘is not’
both is and is not
it is and is not
and neither
is nor is not
a confusion
is based only
on confusion
delusion has
no existence
cease arising
and perishing
also left behind
the leaving behind
transcend speculation
cultivate free of outflow
remove worldly torments
of hate and unwholesome love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
