• This is how to contemplate our conditioned existence in this fleeting world:
  
  Like a tiny drop of dew, or a bubble floating in a stream;
  Like a flash of lightning in a summer cloud,
  Or a flickering lamp, an illusion, a phantom, or a dream.
  
  So is all conditioned existence to be seen.

• Regard this fleeting world like this:
  Like stars fading and vanishing at dawn,
  like bubbles on a fast-moving stream,
  like morning dewdrops evaporating on blades of grass,
  like a candle flickering in a strong wind...
  echoes, mirages, and phantoms, hallucinations,
  and like a dream.

• Know all things to be like this: A mirage, a cloud castle, A dream, an apparition, Without essence, but with qualities that can be seen. Know all things to be like this: As the moon in a bright sky In some clear lake reflected, Though to that lake the moon has never moved. Know all things to be like this: As an echo that derives From music, sounds, and weeping, Yet in that echo is no melody. Know all things to be like this: As a magician makes illusions Of horses, oxen, carts and other things, Nothing is as it appears.
