three perfections (Published)

buddha  
   
one all seeing,    
namu amida butsu,    
crane on utmost branch    
   
                                          only the tree      
                                          sees the crane    
                                          standing
   
   
   
dharma    
   
emptied to be filled,    
namu amida butsu    
sun in morning fog    
   
                                           morning fog      
                                           hiding day's new sun    
                                           in vain  
   
   
   
sangha    
   
encompassing all    
namu amida butsu    
wind in wheat fields    
      
                                           prayer flags      
                                           sending proof that      
                                           wind exists
