A Vajra Song of Awareness-Emptiness

In the sky of the view beyond intellect
Dawn the sun and moon of luminous meditation.
The peerless garuda of conduct soars.
The knots of hope and fear about the fruition are untied.
For one’s own good one is liberated as the jewel of dharmakaya.
From it come plentiful rupakayas for the good of others.
May I quickly accomplish this perfect fruition, the two bodies,
Glorious Samantabhadra.
