All Is an Illusion


Empty and calm and devoid of self
Is the nature of all things.
No individual being
In reality exists.

There is no end or beginning,
Nor any middle course.
All is an illusion,
As in a vision or a dream.

All beings in the world
Are beyond the realm of words.
Their ultimate nature, pure and true,
Is like the infinity of space.

-Prajnaparamita

James's coment: I find so much solace in the Prajnaparamita. It is like breathing in pure oxygen when one is having an asthma or panic attack.

Breathing in, I have arrived.
Breathing in, I am home.

-Peace to all beings-
