Lyrics: Inner Journey
The sentient beings in the Saha World, the Five Evil Worlds
Confidently believe in their false thinkings, follow up their feelings and rely on their impulses
Just for the illusory pleasures from Five Desires,
They gain and lose in an illusory form, but they are attached.
Such kind of living beings are occupied by False Views, which come with Greed, Hatred, Arrogance and Doubt.
They gain various sufferings via costing them dear.
False Views etc keep living beings running without stopping.
When they arise an intention, the evil-grasping mind comes first.
Such False Views etc induce them to eat, drink and have fun day after day.
While living beings deem such False Thinking, Feelings and Impulses themselves.
In Reality, as to the Feeling, it is an illusion;
To the False Thinking, it is a dust from memory.
Greed originates from Cultivating.
Without Greed, how could Hatred, Arrogance or Doubt come into being?
The Buddha, comes into the world, just like the Sun shining in the sky, removing all the darkness,
Like the moon in the sky, cooling all the sentient beings,
the Buddha, carries out Perseverance, Gentleness, Benefiting and Being with others,
in order to awaken the beings staying in flaming Houses via Dharma Speech.
He finds that all the beings are upside-down in the Saha World.
All their Imaginations originate from their feelings, Greed, Hatred, Arrogance and Doubts of the past and present.
Such imaginations automatically write plays and perform, inducing them to indulge in so deeply.
Such imaginations, travelling over space and time, mix things up randomly, just because they are the Ignorance itself.
While the sentient beings from endless beginning follow such imaginations, the demons,
however they collect, the imaginations are still false and illusory.
The sentient beings never know that the feelings are just illusions; that the Imaginations are always writing.
Is it possible to succeed going against the rules?
All of the sentient beings wrongly take False Thinking as themselves.
The False Thinking shields and confuses all the way, while from such details as being stingy and greedy, the tricks it uses are disclosed.
However, the root of suffering is greed.
However you chase after, you could never reach the illusory states.
Everything changes, except The True Nature of seeing.
The sound comes and goes, while the True Nature of Hearing never does.
Treating every phenomenon as real is the root of False.
In addition, through long time cultivation, the false views become firm.
The Lord of the Saha Worlds instructs:
There is no need to find skillful means but just to leave the illusions behind at once when recognizing them.
Leaving them behind is awareness, without any steps.
The living beings in the Dharma Ending worlds practicing accordingly could leave all the illusions behind forever.
The Suffering is the Bliss or the Bliss is the Suffering?
The Illusion is the Reality or the Reality is the Illusion?
To germinate Great Compassion based on True Self is the right practice of Buddha’s heirs in their every minute.

- Sentient Beings in the Saha World
” The sentient beings in the Saha World , the Five Evil Worlds “
Sentient beings in the Saha World, a realm of suffering and impurity.
Sentient beings in the Saha World, a realm of suffering and impurity, are those who exist in a world characterized by constant change and transformation.
The Saha World is likened to the cycle of birth and death, like clouds drifting aimlessly in the sky, constantly changing and transforming. This world is in a state of perpetual flux and metamorphosis. It’s not just about movement but also about assuming various forms. This is merely a phenomenon within the ceaseless process of change in the world. The Saha World can be seen as a comprehensive concept, encompassing all worlds undergoing transformation and change.
Sentience, or sentient beings, refers to all living beings that exist due to sentient feelings, beings with various forms of desire for everything. Desires for food, for shelter, for vehicles, for others, for events, and these desires are not of a single kind. There is love, born from greed, loving everything, loving food, loving clothes, loving men, loving women; there is hatred, finding everything repulsive, hating everything, and all kinds of such feelings. Why do desires arise? Because of dependence, longing, and indispensability, these are called sentient consciousness, all formed through constant conditioning.
