.”
The Buddha’s doctrine is thus proven:
nothing in this world is created.
(Octavio Paz, per Dharmakirti)
~~~
Nothing in this world is created,
said Buddha looking into the bowl of a lotus
Nothing is created
In this lotus filled to the brim
is nothing which has been created
Nothing is created
From the bottom of this lotus brimming with nothing
but filled with hope open as a door
Nothing is created
Nothing in Buddha’s lotus is created
This lotus has been overflowing always
Nothing is created
But something mounts the sky like a sun
wave by wave in no time laden with light always
Uncreated
When I woke this morning it was
inundating Bald Mountain
Uncreated
When was it not created?
Could it have been
Uncreated?
Buddha suggests
Nothing is created
Buddha is
Uncreated
What created creation?
Nothing
or the
Unknown
same difference
