[2] When the Dharma body awakens completely, (from The Shodoka)

|
When the Dharma body awakens completely,
There is nothing at all. The source of our self-nature Is the Buddha of innocent truth. Mental and physical reactions come and go Like clouds in the empty sky; Greed, hatred, and ignorance appear and disappear Like bubbles on the surface of the sea.
