The Lotus Blooms

The Lotus blooms, pure and bright,

Sutra’s wisdom, guiding light.

One true path, to Buddhahood leads,

Skillful means, fulfill all needs.

Buddha’s life, eternal and vast,

Teaching Dharma, present and past.

Parables profound, lessons so clear,

White Lotus Sutra, cherished and dear.

The Noble Truths, a path so wise,

Suffering’s end, in truth it lies.

Karma’s law, cause and effect,

Good deeds bring joy, evil we reject.

Mindfulness and peace, in every breath,

Meditation leads to freedom from death.

Compassion and love, for all beings,

Buddha’s teachings, wisdom it brings.
