Night vigil is not regarded
As a punishment
But a compassionate,
Which means to reinvigorate
And awaken a student
Who may be tired
From intensive lectures,
Or who is under the stress
Of the so-called 'monkey mind'
Overwhelmed with erratic ideas.
The task of a clever teacher
Is to cut out directly the roots
Of such thoughts, all at once,
And this regards as the point
Of the so-called 'seal of mind.'
Always,
Deborah
