Contra Kenkō

Funeral Prayer:::

One who is truly wise

has no knowledge

or virtue

nor honor

nor fame


who will know of him

speak of him to others


this is not

because he hides his virtue

and pretends foolishness


he

is 

beyond

distinctions

such as

wise and foolish

gain and loss


I have been speaking of what it is to cling to one’s delusions

and seek after fame and fortune

All things of this phenomenal world

are mere illusion

they are worth

neither discussing

nor desiring



Contra Kenkō, if the world is illusion

then illusion it is


fix it
