Since the day my mother pvc binh to me umil now, There is only one meaningful thing I ha''t' done. This did not arise from personal cffon, But (rom your profound buddha activity.

If OOC" makes supplication. this a&one iJ enough: You arc the true ;etsan who fulfills supplication . Although I cannot bear the borden Of your pure tn.chings, lord, Jwt by n..uning co you.lofd. with JUCh 'ona:ing, And just by not fa.cing the wrong way, l have obtain.td the tra.nsmission of mnningfulaccion. I offC"r this tnnSmiss.ion to the jeuUn guru Whose kindness is u limitless u space. Thus. I suppliated. In my thiny·steond ynr. on tht night of the C'ighteenth day of the d tvt:nth month, I had a dream: in the middle of a d«r d:y, I saw the prc:tiow lord siddh.a San~ N~np2 sinins on a white silk pa· lanquin canied by many yogints. B«au.sc of his rays olljght and un· pm.lleled splendor, I lost ronsciowMU. A linle whik lat('.t, I awoke from my sl<ep. By the bright Iicht of the moon in the sky. the mountain c:ut a dttp black .shadow remind· in& mr of the many sentient be·ings who S~.~£f'er in this dark age. I then supplicated:

The onr Lord posses:sc:s man'CIOW wonders; When I think of th~ days. I ~alize You, lord . are the supre:me thr« j~·c-b tO diffiC\lh co find in the: wotld . I ha't'C' met you before . and whoever encounters you .. fulfill«!. We without a prottttOI arc posst'$$Cd by the madnm ol chekldas.

So mad, wt: take OUI own lives. Ha.,.ing ta.kcn our li~. wt: faJJ to the thr« lowt"r realms. Having fallen, there is no ocusioo for libe:ration. Contemplating this now. my mind is O'I«Whtlmed. Fcelins this wsr. I am completely lost a.s co what co do. So disuaught in this e-mpty valley. Unabk to pass c.he nisht, I wail and wa.iJ.
