Namo Amida Butsu


Three ships lie at anchor:
Philisophy, Religion, and Reason;
Philosophy cannot cross Samsara's ocean;
Religion will row you no farther than the harbour wall;
Reason flounders before the voyage begins;
But there sits a fourth ship: The Primal Vow,
Which alone can ferry us from port
And follow a course to Blissful Sukhavati
Sails raised to catch the Nembutsu winds;
Namo Amida Butsu!

(Not on the Internet this evening, but cell and home phones are up for voice, and I'm primed to hang out, chill... Dudes beware :-P )
