Path of Non-Division —
I am my body, mind and environment —
The totality of the world is reflected in me.
This is the hidden truth that stares at us —
Beyond our discrimination is a smooth unity.
We are a collective manifestation of the world —
A thousand conditions appear so we also appear.
Each condition depends on thousands of others —
Our connections are vast, and wonderful!
If we see only fear and division —
Suffering will continue and continue.
But with kindness and acceptance —
We will taste peace and understanding.
With the sky above as the roof of non-discrimination,
And this precious earth as a place of safe dwelling —
We can learn to love and accept all people,
Lend a hand to protect our planet and its children.
