Notes

Nirvana ‘blown-out’ Guatama
Eight Fold Path—right views, aspirations, speech, conduct, livelihood, effort, meditation, rapture.

Boddhi-illumination
Sattva—being
Avalokiteshvara who regards the world in mercy

Yellow river fable
Swift horses and arrows
No religion

Boddhisatva appears with a basket full of willows and fish scales.
He who can recite the sutra of the compassionate Kuan Yin she will marry.
Mero is left to find her footsteps leading to the sea.

Fall 1985, Iowa City, Iowa
