The Thirteenth Gate
Mindfulness of the heavens is a gate of Dharma illumination;
for it gives rise to a wide and big mind.
Heavens :
a common religious, cosmological or transcendent place from which heavenly beings (such as a God, angels, the jinn, or venerated ancestors) originate, are enthroned or inhabit.
May we, together with all beings
Nurture an appreciation of the heavens
That we may actualize spaciousness.
May this offering bring peace to all beings
May our actions contribute to the harmony of The Universe
And, may all hearts and minds be opened to The Present.
