VAJRA BODHI SEA

Volume III
Series 6, No.29
 

The Counting Beads Hand
When one attends to the here and now, the false returns to the true;
The Buddhas of the ten directions personally lend a hand.
Quickly attest to the nine levels of the three divisions;
This supremely wonderful Dharma is a victorious magical phrase.
