The Song of Deep-Field Tara<\/strong>
\n\u00a9\u00a0by Kunzang Sherab 2014<\/p>\n

I am Tara,
\nCrusher of all obstacles,
\nLiberator of all beings,
\nYet, verily, when all are liberated,
\nNone have been liberated;
\nWherefore? Because as the Tathagata has said,
\nNo being, however born \u2014 in whatever form \u2013
\nWith whatever nature of perception or mode of thought
\nas its way of being,
\nHas any independent existence whatsoever.
\nAlone among illusions is my Illusory Body true;
\nWherefore? Because I am the Truth that is known by undeceived compassion;
\nLike the moon whose darkness disappears as it waxes,
\nOne who relies upon me experiences no retrogression.<\/p>\n

Keep \u00a0What You Learn<\/strong>
\n\u00a9 Charles Carreon 2012<\/p>\n

Once I had a dream
\nOr maybe it was
\nA vision of truth<\/p>\n

I saw a rich scene
\nUnfolding so bright
\nBefore my eyes<\/p>\n

On a rock in an empty sky
\nWatching the moon
\nAnd clouds going by<\/p>\n

The years clipped by and I saw
\nWhat I would be
\nIt seemed<\/p>\n

The rough parts turned out all right
\nAnd you were there with me<\/p>\n

On a rock in an empty sky
\nWatching the moon
\nAnd clouds going by<\/p>\n

It all worked out in the end
\nI was alone, my own friend
\nHaving seen the whole thing go by
\nI could only sigh<\/p>\n

On a rock in an empty sky
\nWatching the moon
\nAnd clouds going by<\/p>\n

It was kind of a cycle
\nI went through again and again
\nAs I learned<\/p>\n

The important thing
\nWas just to let go, cause this world\u2019s
\nGonna turn<\/p>\n

On a rock in an empty sky
\nWatching the moon
\nAnd clouds going by<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to keep what you learn,
\nI once heard
\nFrom a good friend of mine<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to keep what you learn,

\nFrom a good friend of mine<\/p>\n

On a rock in an empty sky
\nWatching the moon
\nAnd clouds going by<\/p>\n

On a rock in an empty sky
\nOn a rock in an empty sky
\nOn a rock in an empty sky<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
