Precious Essence, The Inner Autobiography of Terchen Barway Dorje.

From Precious Essence, "An Account of the Essence of This Life"


In the vast ocean of buddha nature
The little fish of mind itself, with the golden
eyes of awareness,
Flaps the six wings of the inner faculties.
The outer faculties move about in the ten directions.
If the outer and inner retain this golden gleam
Object and subject are powerful and not two.
Self-awareness is the perfect buddha! emaho!
May this be realized by myself and all beings!
This was composed by Dechen Barway Dorje.
May all attain buddhahood."
