The Everlasting World
There are many things in the blue sky,
But the sky just exists silently.
Regardless of whether those things exist, it is always the sky.
The true sky in the mind of the original foundation
Is not blue; it has no color, smell or taste,
No sensation, nothing it sees or hears –
It is the place where everything has ceased;
A place beyond human conceptions and habits.
Man lives inside his mind of delusions
But when he changes his human mind
To the mind of the sky before the sky that is eternally alive,
He is able to truly live.
As an eternal immortal, he will live forever
In his mind that has become the world.
Do is changing man’s mind –
The mind of copied pictures –
Into the mind of the sky, that is Truth,
The sky before the sky, and Jung and Shin.
Man with his mind of false pictures
Is ever trying to possess more,
Trying to fill his mind of hunger with anything he can,
But it is suffering and burden that follows when one adds to his mind
Until now, in the age of incompletion,
Man could not become complete,
Because he only studied how to have more.
If he subtracts what is in his mind,
Man returns to the sky before the sky –
The mind of Truth.
When he becomes the mind of the sky,
He does not have human mind,
He no longer possesses the world of pictures
And instead he has the true mind of the world.
On the day he is reborn in the true world
With the mind of that world, this place becomes heaven;
The place of the eternal sky.
He who is born in heaven while he is living
becomes a complete man.
When one is eternally without death,
It is completion.
