IF MAN RESTRAIN DESIRE, 
 
HIS MIND WILL CEASE TO ROLL, 
 
AND MIND’S RELEASE ALLOW PURE PEACE 
 
OF SILENCE TO THE SOUL. 
 
 
 
 
THE SENSES WILL NOT SOIL ; 
 
THE THOUGHT WILL NOT UPSTRESS ; 
 
NOR POISONS (GREED, WRATH, DULNESS) BREED 
 
THEIR TRIFORM DEADLINESS. 
 
 
 
 
MEN EARN NOT EASE OF TAO 
 
FOR THEIR DESIRES’ DISEASE ; 
 
BECAUSE THEIR MIND IS NOT REFINED 
 
OF THOUGHT BY KILLING THESE 
 
 
 
 
IF ONE SHOULD SLAY DESIRES, 
 
HIS MIND AND BODY SEEM 
 
NO LONGER HIS, BUT PHANTASIES 
 
DANCED IN A WANTON’S DREAM. 
 
 
 
 
SLAY MIND, SLAY BODY, SLAY 
 
THE EXTERNAL : MATTER GOES. 
 
THEN SPACE REMAINS ; RENEW THY PAINS ! 
 
UP ! FRONT THE FINAL FOES !
