According to Buddha
Do not while away your time in idleness. A great many people occupy themselves with inconsequential activities. Ask them what they have been doing and they will usually say, “Oh, I have been busy every minute!” But they can scarcely remember what they were so busy about.
woah come with me now
i’m gonna show you how
afraid to lose control
and caught up in this world
i’ve wasted time, i’ve wasted breath
i think i’ve thought myself to death

According to Buddha
You may control a mad elephant;
You may shut the mouth of the bear and the tiger;
Ride the lion and play with the cobra;
By alchemy you may learn your livelihood;
You may wander through the universe incognito;
Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful;
You may walk in water and live in fire;
But control of the mind is better and more difficult.
well i think it’s fine, building jumbo planes.
or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
switch on summer from a slot machine.
get what you want to if you want, ’cause you can get anything.
i know we’ve come a long way,
we’re changing day to day,
but tell me, where do the children play?

According to Buddha
We are here to awaken from the illusion of our separateness.
you’ve got a face not spoiled by beauty
i have some scars from where i’ve been
you’ve got eyes that can see right through me
you’re not afraid of anything they’ve seen

According to Buddha
Right concentration, or absorption is the eighth point of the path. Usually we are absorbed in absentmindedness. Our minds are completely captivated by all sorts of entertainment and speculations. Right absorption means that we are completely absorbed in nowness, in things as they are.
in another way from
another point of view
i see life and light
all the colours of the world
so beautiful
won’t you come with me?

According to Buddha
Buddhism teaches us not to try to run away from suffering. You have to confront suffering. You have to look deeply into the nature of suffering in order to recognize its cause, the making of the suffering.
’cause i’m running to where you are
i can’t tell no one
and i can’t run that far
’cause I’m running and it’s a shame
if i could I would
but i can’t take the blame

According to Buddha
You are your dreams. Your dreams are what you can become, so don’t stop dreaming and believing. Just do it!

lookin’ for adventure
and whatever comes our way

take the world in a love embrace
fire all of your guns at once
and explode into space

According to Buddha
Eliminate what doesn’t matter to make more room for what does.
in the lonely financial zone by the sea
i have walked under moon and stars
skyscrapers shown in their dark majesty
in this otherworldly land of ours
i’ve walked by the buildings
i’ve walked by the malls
i’ve walked by the skyscrapers
lonely and dark

According to Buddha
When a man has pity on all living creatures then only is he noble.
so if you’re lonely, you know i’m here waiting for you
i’m just a cross-hair, i’m just a shot away from you
and if you leave here, you leave me broken shattered i lie
i say, “don’t you know?”
you say, “you don’t know”
i say, “take me out”

According to Buddha
The important thing is that you acknowledge your homeless neighbours and treat them to as much generosity you can muster, even if that is just a smile.
we’ve all seen a man at the liquor store beggin’ for your change
the hair on his face is dirty, dread-locked, and full of mange
he asks a man for what he could spare, with shame in his eyes
“get a job, you fucking slob,” is all he replies
god forbid, you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
’cause then you really might know what it’s like to sing the blues

According to Buddha
Unity can only be manifested by the Binary. Unity itself and the idea of Unity are already two.
oh, we all want the same thing.
oh, we all run for something.
run for god, for fate,
for love, for hate,
for gold, for rust,
for diamonds, for dust.
