Enlightenment
The light,
If you are not conscious,
Does not exist
Even if there are thousands
of stars.
The light in fact
Is consciousness:
Eyes can only see objects
If one is conscious of them.
If the beginning is dark
And the eyes may be many,
There is nothing to see
Except extreme agony!
If the eyes are wide open
But consciousness closed,
All we can accept
Is the disgrace of viewing!
Of course, to be blind is not good,
But nothing is worse than
to be consciousness blind,
Making things adverse altogether.
