My Maras and my Rough Path 8/20/2023 At my humble Virginia home (1) I had a thought and I said to myself, ‘Here comes a thought, and it is an interesting one.’ I further alerted myself ‘watchout, dude, this is an interesting one!’ (2) Entertained by self-confidence and hope. I empowered the thought I made friends with The reason I have is simple I want to see the magical interplay of my thoughts and my “safeguarded” actions. (3) Alas! While I was coaching the game I launched Mara, the king of all evils, surreptitiously joined the game with his artful daughters. And together they turned the whole thing completely upside down!  (4) Oh, my dear friends! With greatest embarrassment Let me confess to you. In the King of Mara’s camp I found I feel nothing but the waves of afflictive emotions alone. (5) Yes, It is hard to admit and honestly to be regretted. But it nevertheless is painfully humiliating. Under the King Mara and his daughters’ captivation I lost my intellect, all I had was conf...

Dancing With the Divine Lady of Impermanence By Tt 10/8/2023 ✅ At Virginia humble home (1) I see she is coming I feel her sweet breath and my heart is ecstatic! (2) Impermanence The divine lady of the ultimate truth That an infant perhaps could observe While sucking the sweetest juice from her mother’s nipples. (3) Yes I see she is walking to my deck Where I was trying to figure out whether the flavor of my coffee defines itself Or if my tongue determines what is truly unfolding all around. (4) I see she is kindly and lusciously watching me From the autumn leaves 🍂 being intoxicated by the bliss spread from the lady of impermanence! (5) Is divine truth always hidden and ambiguous? Is it true the goddess of divine reality is shy and scared to expose her exquisite naked body to her devotees? Today, at least, today I believe I had a few moments of eye contact with my divine lady The goodness of impermanence. (6) From the autumn leaves 🍂 being drunk by the bliss of the goddess of i...

My New Year’s Day Prayer By Tt On the summit of the Stony man in Shenandoah Valley 1/1/2023 (1) As a naive Tibetan teenage boy I hate prayers I am refused to see I am one of the prayers My mentors were my school teachers, The so call “science-based language textbooks” were the only window through which I see the universe (2) As a cynical young man I was totally disgraced by my nations tragical past and it’s suffocating status quo I wanted to pray but didn’t know how And more important to whom my prayers ought to be made! By the blessings of my quest for freedom I heard the great boos of the universe that none of my school teachers dare to attend I saw how the magnificent Himalayan jeers at the textbooks taught me what universe is and who I truly am. (3) As a proud adult I realized praying is the only food that can keep me alive So, I joined the exalted ancient order of monasticism I took refuge in the doctrine of Escapitism I was honored and felt somewhat home As a disti...

The Reflection of Reflection (edited by Carrie)  By Tt  2022-7-19  In Buddha Land, Turners Station, Kentucky  (1)  The trees and flowers on the other side of the pond seem to be looking at me  What caught my eye was not rigid material objects  Everything is so clear and translucent  The pleasant aroma of tranquility spreading in the air  Make me drown in joy, dare not move  However The message from the other side of the pond Is clearly teasing my unquestionable sense of existence!    (2)  Anyway  I know  I am sure  This moment  It’s me  Yes  It's me watching the trees and flowers on the opposite side  That's right  I'm enjoying their unique features that want to please the heaven and earth I can’t ask for more, I appreciate it to the fullest.    (3)  I'm looking at the surface of the pond, full of goodwill For everything that appears and happens around me As if in an attempt to lead me to absorption  in meditation  I firmly believe in going out of the tunnel of worldly...

The Mind Stirring Myths By Tt 7/9/2022 At Greenberry’s, Charlottesville VA (1) “Tell Me who invited you here?” “Tell me who is older than whom?” These were the questions I heard the moment I realized where I was standing Today, upon seeing this picture I heard these questions again. (2) So, I have two unanswered mind-boggling questions Oh, the great venerable mother of wisdom Please help your own son Free him with his ancient memories. (3) I have two soul-stirring myths that chase me Oh, the great compassionate mother of all times Please help your own son Enlighten him with his antiquated origin. (4) The magnificent pyramids of Giza Invited me with their matchless majesty The imperishable legends of the ancient Kush kingdom Honored my presence with their unsurpassed charms “Look, these are the pyramids you have longed to see!” A voice I made acquaintance within this life shouted out “Hold on, how can you be certain you have never been here before?” Familiar words of a reminder...
