"Lotus Born, No Need To Fear" lyrics

Awakened one
With a body like this
You will see your home and family
As though you were meeting them in a dream

But although you speak to them
You will get no reply
You will see your relatives and family weeping
So you will think "I am dead"
"What shall I do?"

And you will feel intense pain
Like the pain of a fish rolling in hot sand

But now, suffering is no use
Even though you were attached to your relatives and family
It is no use
So. Do not be attached
Invoke the lord of great compassion
And there will be no suffering or fear

Awakened one
Since your mind is separated from your body
You can not settle down
You feel angry and cold
And consciousness becomes... airy
Speeding, swaying
And impermanent

You will think
"So. I am dead"
"What shall I do now?"

And you will feel intense and boundless pain
Do not occupy yourself with all kinds of thoughts
But rest your mind in its basic state

But since you are a mental body, you cannot die
And even though your body is cut into pieces
You will recover
You are really the natural form of emptiness
So there is no need to fear
The lords of death are the natural form of emptiness
Your own confused projections and you
Are emptiness
The mental body of unconscious tendencies

Emptiness cannot harm emptiness
And external lords of death, gods, evil spirits
Demons and so on
Have no reality apart from your own confused projections

So. Recognize this
At this moment
Recognize everything as
The Bardo
