    The one Hundred and seventh of 108 Gates Of Dharma Illumination

    107) The one Hundred and seventh Gate; The state beyond regressing and straying

    The state beyond regressing and straying is a gate of Dharma illumination; for it is replete with the Dharma of past buddhas. (Nishijima/Cross)

    The ground of unremitting practice is a gate of realizing dharma; it embodies the dharma of all past buddhas. (Tanahashi)

    Gate Gatha:
    May we, together with all buddhas;
    Transcend regressing and straying
    That we may become intimate with the Dharma of all past buddhas.

    Reflection Prompts:

    The ground of unremitting practice (The state beyond regressing and straying) embodies the dharma of all past buddhas. What more could we add to this?

    Capping Verse:
    Surrender fully
    To the flow
    And float not upstream
