Còn Yêu Em Mãi - Elvis Phương

Tinh Bo Vo - Song Ca

Tình phiêu lãng - Minh Thuận

When I first read The Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch, I always assumed Huineng’s verse was superior. Later, Master revealed to me: The opposite of "wrong" isn’t "right"—only when duality dissolves into the "unity of opposites" (一合相), beyond all conceptual division, is truth revealed.

The song Two Verses, One Moon draws inspiration from Zen history’s most poetic debate:
Shenxiu’s verse:
"The body is the Bodhi tree,
The mind a mirror bright.
Polish it diligently,
Lest dust alight."

Huineng’s reply:
"No Bodhi tree exists,
Nor stand of mirror clear.
Since all is void from the start,
Where could dust appear?"

In the song:
Verse 1 embodies Shenxiu’s disciplined cultivation,
Verse 2 channels Huineng’s sudden enlightenment,
The chorus merges both into the unity of opposites.
The outro, with Nine-Words Zen mantras and the Heart Sutra chant, dissolves all conflict into a sea of sound.
  

[Verse 1]
The Bodhi tree stands in my gaze
Silent leaves, roots beyond space
A mirror waits within my mind
I brush the dust of worldly grind

[Pre-Chorus]
Each breath a bell, each step the Way
Slow is the dance, yet none astray

[Chorus]
Dust will dance, then fade from sight
Through cracks of glass – the moon’s first light
Whether mind is still or spun
The path and absence both are one

[Verse 2]
No branch to bend, no glass to hold
No wiper’s hand, no dust to scold
The mind is free, no place to cling
Just echoes of the vastest ring

[Bridge]
Two truths held in whispered flame
One speaks effort, one un-named
The polisher’s rag now fills with sky
The echo laughs – “Why try?”

[Outro]
Na Mo Ben Shi Da Zi Zai Wang Fo
Gate gate pāragate pārasaṃgate bodhi svāhā
Na Mo Ben Shi Da Zi Zai Wang Fo
Gate gate pāragate pārasaṃgate bodhi svāhā
Na Mo Ben Shi Da Zi Zai Wang Fo
Gate gate pāragate pārasaṃgate bodhi svāhā

[End]
