Poem: Now I Can See Clearly

Blinded by ten thousand things,
I climbed the highest mountain hoping I could see,
But everything I saw was made of earth, metal, water, wood, and fire.
So I left the mountain in search of a forest deep,
I made my home with the singing birds
And slept beside the doe and fawn.
I sat day and night in quiet meditation by a mist-filled waterfall,
But no matter where I looked I could not see.

Then one day in the world of man
There appeared a book both blue and gold,
The words inside said, "'The Buddha Fa' is most profound:
among all the theories in the world..."
Now everywhere I look, I can clearly see.


Editors note: 'Fa' can be roughly translated to, "Law and principles in the Buddha School."
