Outside the limits of the human world

There is neither calming nor excitation,

Neither order nor disarray, neither pros

Nor cons, neither care nor negligence,

Neither sitting still nor walking drill;--

Such is profound meditation or Dhyana,

The penultimate stage of yoga, in which

All the five aggregates are not in reality,

And the six senses are empty by nature.

Yes, it is neither obscure nor illuminated;

It is neither real nor false; it never abides

By the middle way, and that's it. What else,

It is never activating as it produces nothing;

Yet, dealing with the utmost liberality,

It represents the essence of Pure Mind

With its comprehension and only then abidance,

But sometimes it works inversely because

The spiral means two-way traffic, not one-way.
