A SONG OF COMPASSION AND COURAGE
In Honoring the Most Venerable Thich Quang Do
The Most Venerable Thich Quang Do is the amongst the supreme leaders
Of the most venerable monks in Vietnamese Buddhism in modern times.
He chooses compassion over the vicious evil world
Bringing wisdom to transform hatred, greed, ignorance, and attachment
He is often alone in spite of the time
Bringing love and transformation over ignorance and the communist government
Bringing the teachings of the Buddha to sow all over places and beings
He makes the vows and commitments of a Bodhisattva
In the name of Bodhisattva, he has leisurely escaped the Circle of Depression
He also brings Mahayana thoughts into everyday life.
For the homeland, the nation, and the miraculous Dharma
He is sometimes, as a Lion roars gallantly
He explicitly claimed and fought for the right to freedom of life
of the Unified Buddhist Church of Vietnam and the human right in Vietnam.
Now the body has returned to the ground
His great mind and heart still linger over thousands of lives!
Thầy left as a crane peacefully flying across the sky
Leisurely over the hills of life and death.
Paying the homage of the Most Venerable Quảng Độ
