The Ten Stages of Perception

Up through bamboo. Leave the First Stage:
 Pass Illusion: Go by Lotus Mountain:
 Through the Pass, there’s the whole of Ch’u:
 Beyond the woods see the distant plain:
 Cross-legged on a mat of grass:
 Hear scriptures in the high pine:
 Reach the Void: through Clouds of Law:
 Meditate to achieve Nirvana.
