all the low clouds keeping pace
through the train window,
always arriving, whether fast or
slow, but never actually moving
‘I am always in the presence of all
the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who
are always endowed with unobstructed
wisdom’; there is no ultimate
difference between the body and
the mind therefore those who
walk about in that realisation are present
wherever an omniscient mind is,
throughout each plane of ten directions
within each of the ten directions
none of them safely away in far places
of my mind (where I might just get
get away with anything) and when I
invoke them to come ‘here’, they are
already always here, far more immanent
than I could stand on my own two feet,
far more immediate before I could even
think to in-front generate, far more
intimate than my dignity could allow …
and then at and long and even last, I’ll
recognise it all, all my rotting lacks and
fetid habits (never successfully hidden),
finally signalling that I get it – confessing
it all, each writhing and breaking-up sod
of wilful and peevish stupidity, undressing
it all with lay-aside relief; and it’s not
like I’m informing them, they won’t be
shocked or recoil with disgust or resigned
with disappointment, it is just me falling
far short of being right, let alone clever
or wise, unpeeling from myself all the
lies I accepted that said I am right,
clever and vindicated like an emperor
with new clothes; this immanence of
clarity, this confession that inculcates a non-
duality rising to a Perfection with wisdom
Bodhisattvacharyavatara II 27; V 31
