Cittanubhava (Mind-Power)
Buddhadasa Bhikkhu
Genuine mind-power is the highest thing &
Helps bring mind-liberation even higher.
If abused It drags us down into the pits,
Even a peacock can end up just a crow.
Confidently train and collect the mind’s strength,
Steadily stabilizing it through the path,
Correctly fulfilling wishes & entering the course
Of Dhamma, unwaveringly on target for Nibbana.
Each day, if applied in ordinary work & duties,
It integrates the higher mental training and
Together with the good fruitions of your work
All aspects of Dhamma are practiced right in you.
