It is disgusting, but we, instead, love it. <br />

The cessation is not sweet like the sugar trees <br />

It is not sparkling like the diamonds. <br />

The taste of heaven is addictive, and poisonous. <br />

We are trapped in it, but we donût notice, <br />

Just like crab and shell, <br />

Which always stay in the hole, <br />

Never know about the little bird,<br />

That ies freely in the endless sky. 37<br />

Buddhadsa shall not die (210) 38<br />

Buddhadsa shall live forever, <br />

Even when my body is dead<br />

<br />

It is normal for the body to be dead<br />

<br />

It is the law of nature and time <br />

Buddhadsa will live forever, <br />

Good or bad, I will live with the religion <br />

As I have devoted this body and mind to it, <br />

By the order of the Buddha, I wonût stops .<br />

Buddhadsa still lives forever, <br />

In order to serve my fellow human beings- <br />

With the dharma advertising. <br />

Can you see, my fellow, what is really dead? <br />
