Saint Martin, Caribbean Sea
In the blistering heat of summer, I think
May all living beings
Escape from all afflictions,
And put an end to them completely.
Granite Lake | Trinity Alps, California
When summer ends and
the cool season begins, I think
May all living beings
Realize the Unsurpassed Dharma,
And be ultimately clean and cool.
Lake Crescent | Olympic National Park, Washington
When I bathe my body, I think
May all living beings
Be unsullied in body and mind,
Radiant and clean inside and out.
Anguilla, Caribbean Sea
When I wash with water, I think
May all living beings
Quickly reach
Transcendental Dharmas.
Moonrise at Dusk | Ukiah, California
When it’s time to sleep and rest, I think
May all living beings
Enjoy peace and security in their persons,
And have no restlessness or confusion in their minds.
Sunrise | Kauai, Hawaii
When I awake from sleep, I think
May all living beings
Awaken to omniscience,
With vision that spans the Ten Directions.
