Gift of the Present (2005)

Calmness
within the bustle of life.

Stillness
within the electric current.

Peace
within the human mind.

Knowing all that is around you
comes when you know all that is within.

When you understand the impermanence of this body,
you understand the impermanence of this life,
of this world,
and all that exists.

When you understand the conditionality and interpendency of this body,
you understand the conditionality and interdependence of all that make up this life,
this world,
and all that exists.

When you realise the impermanence, the conditionality and the interdependency of all that exists,
you understand that everything is incomplete,
and yet, perfectly finished at the same time.

What is done is finished.
What is possessed is enough.

What we had is memory.
What we will have is wish.
What we have is now.
