Only no-mind is original and radical.
Only no-mind is revolutionary - revolution in action.

burdened by the projections of the future,

the flame arises - clean, clear, alive, young.

and a flame without any smoke.
That is what awareness is.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought

they are being attacked,

and exposing the country to danger.
It works the same in every country.

will begin to establish themselves around and within him;

in a more liberal sense,
and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.
