This Present World of Experience

Whatever there is in the world and beyond
It occurs as seen, heard, smelled, tasted, touched or thought
These six types of experience encompass everything
Investigate them right where you are now

Past or future experiences cannot be perceived at all
So look closely at this present moment

The bodily impressions cannot tell what they are
It is only thinking that names and explains
Meaning, importance, truth and falsity are all thoughts
Therefore mind is what should be first clarified

Thoughts pop up and dissolve all day long
When you don't attach any significance to one
It won't give birth to another hundred
Just see it as a mere thought and it disappears

As you understand that only concepts can define experience
And concepts themselves are without substance
Resting in open awareness comes naturally
Where all clinging and identification is impossible

Within this realm of pristine experience
Everything is seen, heard, smelled, tasted, touched and thought
Just as an ordinary human being free from distress
Interacting with all beings out of peaceful compassion
