A single candle

It is better not to light a single candle,

 

Nor to curse the darkness.

 

With even the single candle blown out,

 

The house appears alone and silent in the blackness,

 

Without a friend in the world,

 

Without even the world to be a friend.

 

The Silence that appears,

 

is the silence of Death.

 

Endless beginningness in the blackness.

 

Without question, without doubt, without need,

 

Independent Silence alone as Isness,

 

Dead to all,

 

Is all.
