Physically present,
the awakened one within me.
Bowing down before the awakened one within you,
a Buddha meets a Buddha, they say.
Awakening meeting itself
Everything then is only awakening.
By sanpai*,
I awaken
I awaken you
you awaken
you awaken me.
*Triple prostration in the Zen tradition

Yet, I cannot trust any who claim to recognise it themselves. Th « awakened » are never those who claim wakefulness.

And humour…

The theme appears to be never to trust anything one says about oneself. Probably a good idea…
