For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers
The fire of hatred
blazes hot inside you
all day
Isn’t it better not to hate others?
When’ll you find peace
and coolness?
Your desires are the causes of your own sufferings
**
You wish to see others dead
their buildings crumble to the ground
their children drop out of high schools
their currency collapses
But in reality, these people grow stronger
Their buildings grow taller
and more magnificent
Their children obtaining Ph Ds
with flying colors
Their currency remains stable
**
You go about daily
picking up hatred
which is invariably painful
Why don’t you just stop hating
other races?
Stop setting alight the fires
which scorch you
not the enemies
Avoid evils
and purify your mind
The universal law is
that an evil person
suffers in a way befitting evil persons
There is no escape
You swim in the sea of suffering forever
*
Don’t you agree that
all the chaos and trouble
in this world
originated from your sensuality
from your greed and hatred?
**
No good can come of thieving
It is bound to lead
to the suffering of a thief.
**
Samurai sword dancing only provoke other races
Fanning the flames and beating the drums
will lead you to nowhere
The smart guys know
racism exists in this world
These good people
have no place for malice, hate, jealousy and envy
in their mind
You’ll never be able
to becloud, defile or perturb them
no matter how grave the provocation is
They are like lotuses
which grew from the pond of feces
but are never stained by the shits
Moreover
these flowers contain sweet fragrant
