In This Great Expanse of Space

In this great expanse of space without center or end,
On this planet where there’s neither top nor bottom,
For all the beings there may be, self and other are equality,
Body and mind undifferentiable—the great transparency!


Sung spontaneously in Marpa House, Boulder, Colorado, October 1999.  Translated by Ari Goldfield. Translation copyright 2012, Ari Goldfield.

Know this life to be like a dream.
See the mind’s unborn nature.
Aspire to be of benefit to others.
